I recently installed elasticsearch / kibana / hearbeat 8.9.1 (each on a separate server)
created automated terraform and ansible to do that.
I configured heartbeat and was able to see the information for one day in the "uptime" tab.
A day passed by and I no longer see anything In the uptime tab but I can see the data inside discover tab being updated regularly.
what am I missing?
heartbeat config file
################### Heartbeat Configuration Example #########################
# This file is an example configuration file highlighting only some common options.
# The heartbeat.reference.yml file in the same directory contains all the supported options
# with detailed comments. You can use it for reference.
#
# You can find the full configuration reference here:
# https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/heartbeat/index.html
############################# Heartbeat ######################################
# Define a directory to load monitor definitions from. Definitions take the form
# of individual yaml files.
heartbeat.config.monitors:
# Directory + glob pattern to search for configuration files
path: ${path.config}/monitors.d/*.yml
# If enabled, heartbeat will periodically check the config.monitors path for changes
reload.enabled: true
# How often to check for changes
reload.period: 5s
# Configure monitors inline
heartbeat.monitors:
- type: http
# Set enabled to true (or delete the following line) to enable this example monitor
enabled: false
# ID used to uniquely identify this monitor in elasticsearch even if the config changes
id: my-monitor
# Human readable display name for this service in Uptime UI and elsewhere
name: My Monitor
# List or urls to query
urls: ["http://localhost:9200"]

# =================================== Kibana ===================================
# Starting with Beats version 6.0.0, the dashboards are loaded via the Kibana API.
# This requires a Kibana endpoint configuration.
setup.kibana:
# Kibana Host
# Scheme and port can be left out and will be set to the default (http and 5601)
# In case you specify and additional path, the scheme is required: http://localhost:5601/path

# Kibana Space ID
# ID of the Kibana Space into which the dashboards should be loaded. By default,
# the Default Space will be used.

# =============================== Elastic Cloud ================================
# These settings simplify using Heartbeat with the Elastic Cloud (https://cloud.elastic.co/).
# The cloud.id setting overwrites the `output.elasticsearch.inventory.yml` and
# `setup.kibana.host` options.
# You can find the `cloud.id` in the Elastic Cloud web UI.

# ================================== Logging ===================================
# Sets log level. The default log level is info.

# At debug level, you can selectively enable logging only for some components.
# To enable all selectors use ["*"]. Examples of other selectors are "beat",
# "publisher", "service".

# ============================= X-Pack Monitoring ==============================
# Heartbeat can export internal metrics to a central Elasticsearch monitoring
# cluster. This requires xpack monitoring to be enabled in Elasticsearch. The
# reporting is disabled by default.
# Set to true to enable the monitoring reporter.
#monitoring.enabled: false
# Sets the UUID of the Elasticsearch cluster under which monitoring data for this
# Heartbeat instance will appear in the Stack Monitoring UI. If output.elasticsearch
# is enabled, the UUID is derived from the Elasticsearch cluster referenced by output.elasticsearch.
#monitoring.cluster_uuid:
# Uncomment to send the metrics to Elasticsearch. Most settings from the
# Elasticsearch output are accepted here as well.
# Note that the settings should point to your Elasticsearch *monitoring* cluster.
# Any setting that is not set is automatically inherited from the Elasticsearch
# output configuration, so if you have the Elasticsearch output configured such
# that it is pointing to your Elasticsearch monitoring cluster, you can simply
# uncomment the following line.
#monitoring.elasticsearch:
# ============================== Instrumentation ===============================
# Instrumentation support for the heartbeat.
#instrumentation:
# Set to true to enable instrumentation of heartbeat.

# Environment in which heartbeat is running on (eg: staging, production, etc.)
#environment: ""
# APM Server inventory.yml to report instrumentation results to.
