Hi,  
If you have installces 2 Kibana Instances, the Spaces, and the other objects are shared between them?  
Meaning, on the second instance i dont have other spaces or information?  
I manage to add a second instance, and here i see the same spaces as in first instances.

Thank you,  
Victor

hi @vapetri, yes, if each kibana instance points to the same Elasticsearch cluster with the same `.kibana` index (the default), then they will share the same Spaces configuration.
