I can't understand how this works:  
What metricsets do i need to have enabled in order to have everything that legacy collectors scrapes as data.  
And do i need to have different metricsets configured for master and data nodes?

I found the answer - here is detailed information about which metricsets needs to be enabled on master and data nodes - [Collectors | Elasticsearch Guide [7.13] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/es-monitoring-collectors.html)
