We installed the ElasticAgent on Kubernetets as a DeamonSet and everything seems to work fine except a couple of a errors on the Overview dashboard.

Yes, the cluster does not have that role because we don't have a remote cluster. So I dont see the need to enable this. We have a 3 node ES cluster and Kibana on another separate server.

Inspecting the panel I see this error:

Im Superuser and Kibana admin so I would think I have all the permissions.

```auto
{
  "attributes": {
    "type": "status_exception",
    "reason": "error while executing search",
    "caused_by": {
      "type": "security_exception",
      "reason": "action [indices:data/read/search] is unauthorized for user [<MYACCOUNT>] with effective roles [kibana_admin,monitoring_user,superuser], this action is granted by the index privileges [read,all]",
      "caused_by": {
        "type": "illegal_argument_exception",
        "reason": "node [LNXELASTIC101-P] does not have the remote cluster client role enabled"
      }
    }
  },
  "err": {
    "message": "status_exception\n\tCaused by:\n\t\tsecurity_exception: action [indices:data/read/search] is unauthorized for user [<MYACCOUNT>s] with effective roles [kibana_admin,monitoring_user,superuser], this action is granted by the index privileges [read,all]",
    "statusCode": 403,
    "attributes": {
      "type": "status_exception",
      "reason": "error while executing search",
      "caused_by": {

        "reason": "action [indices:data/read/search] is unauthorized for user [<MYACCOUNT>] with effective roles [kibana_admin,monitoring_user,superuser], this action is granted by the index privileges [read,all]",
        "caused_by": {
          "type": "illegal_argument_exception",
          "reason": "node [LNXELASTIC101-P] does not have the remote cluster client role enabled"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

```

Yes I noticed the Info panel. But since I see data on other panels I assume kube-state-metrics works. Correct me I im wrong!

Any pointers?
