Hello

I'm upgrade my Elasticsearch/Logstash Cluster form 6.6.x to 6.7.0  
I saw in the logs some notice, that I'm using old config settings, which will not work after 7.0.0.

Like old:  
xpack.monitoring.elasticsearch.url  
xpack.monitoring.elasticsearch.ssl.ca

They should be now like:  
xpack.monitoring.elasticsearch.hosts  
xpack.monitoring.elasticsearch.ssl.certificate\_authority

Is there any list, help, notice... which config settings I have to change, prior to version 7.0.0?

Thanks  
roger

Hello

I've found this one:  
[https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/7.x/breaking-changes-7.0.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/7.x/breaking-changes-7.0.html)  
But it is for Kibana, and the _xpack.monitoring.elasticsearch.ssl.ca_ should be xpack.monitoring.elasticsearch.ssl. **certificateAuthority** - but this will not work on Logstash 6.7.0:

An unexpected error occurred! {:error=\>#\<ArgumentError: Setting "xpack.monitoring.elasticsearch.ssl.certificateAuthority" hasn't been registered\>

So, we have here for the same setting two different names?  
thanks  
roger
