Hi Guys,

For now, I successfully deploy the elk stack and I've loaded the packetbeat index for a machine that I've got on AWS ec2 service, but when I want to load the same index to elasticsearch, it gets replaced every time. And even when I've changed output.elasticsearch.index: to change the name in the packetbeat.yml, I've got always the same problem.

Any Help?

Note: We Use The ELK Stack inside a docker-compose stack.
