All I have a 4 node cluster, 1 master 3 data ES nodes. Kibana and ES is on the master. I've installed the marvel license and plugins on all nodes and can see the marvel indexes being created but I cant see the marvel dashboard "app switcher" in kibana. All the logs look clean Any suggestions? marvel agent = /marvel-agent-2.3.5 /usr/share/elasticsearch/bin/elasticsearch --version Version: 2.3.5, Build: 90f439f/2016-07-27T10:36:52Z, JVM: 1.8.0\_40 was kibana 4.53 --\> now now kibana-4.5.4-1.x86 on Redhat Lilnux ---

Oh, the docs aren't really clear on that. `bin/kibana plugin --install elasticsearch/marvel/2.3.5`. ---

That almost worked 🙂 /opt/kibana/bin/kibana plugin --install elasticsearch/marvel/2.3.5. Installing marvel Attempting to transfer from [https://download.elastic.co/elasticsearch/marvel/marvel-2.3.5..tar.gz](https://download.elastic.co/elasticsearch/marvel/marvel-2.3.5..tar.gz) Plugin installation was unsuccessful due to error "No valid url specified." ---

I dont know... I thought I read something about about the indexes not being able to be cleaned up of removed with a basic license...? I just installed the basic a license and looks like its good for i year. I was just trying to get the definitive url for licensing - dosnt seem that clear the cost and support...Anyway Ill go basic for now - this is a poc. Also wondering how can I get the cooler color schemes Ive seen. Mine are basic black and white graphs - nice but was hoping for something cooler. I couldn't find the setting in the marvel dashboard. Thanks ---

also, is it possible to get my kopf and head plugin to show up in the app switcher? That would be very handy. Currently Im using separate urls - the plugins are all installed on the same master node ---

You can find more on the licensing here - [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/marvel/current/license-management.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/marvel/current/license-management.html) Kopf and head are ES plugins, they are not KB ones ---
