Are there any error in the logstash logs, or in either ES cluster logs indicating a potential error?

You can also run this query against _both_ [http://192.168.1.168:9200](http://192.168.1.168:9200) and [http://192.168.1.169:9200](http://192.168.1.169:9200) to see if there is any monitoring data on either cluster.

```auto
POST .monitoring-logstash-6-*/_search
{
  "size": 1,
  "query": {
    "bool": {
      "filter": [
        {
          "range": {
            "timestamp": {
              "gte": "now-2m",
              "lte": "now"
            }
          }
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

```

If you find results on one of the clusters (or both), how is your Kibana configured in terms of elasticsearch urls?

Thank your Reply
