I'm using prebuild elastic integration to fetch mysql metrics and logs.  
I'm able to fetch mysql status metrics and agent running healthy.  
But when I enable MySQL performance metric it will become unhealthy and I got error logs of metricbeat below.

```auto
elastic_agent.metricbeat

```

Any solution?

Thanks

@ishleenk17 does this look familiar to you? It seems to be an Agent issue 🤔

There is already an issue for this: [metricbeat restart loop with error: `data path already locked by another beat` · Issue #914 · elastic/elastic-agent · GitHub](https://github.com/elastic/elastic-agent/issues/914)
