Hi, i have 1 centralize cluster (Monitor Cluster) to storage log and metrics from multiple cluster (Env Cluster). My Monitor Cluster deploy using ECK version 1.2. And my Env Cluster is using Elasticsearch Cloud Service (from [elastic.co](http://elastic.co)). But now i want to ship the metrics from Env Cluster to my Monitor Cluster, i have use Metricbeat to do that, and i see the indices .monitoring-es-\* appear in my index management (Monitor Cluster). But when i click to my Stack Monitoring in Kibana (Monitor Cluster), it appear Error like image below. So can i monitoring multiple Env Cluster metric with only 1 Monitor Cluster? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/e/c/ecd5f4f787fee59602bb1eaee6b13c81438c4d87.png) ---

Hey @redondoxx It's hard to understand the cause of the issue (and your intended setup) without seeing some of your settings in: metricbeat.yml kibana.yml elasticsearch-xpack.yml Are you seeing any errors/warning in Kibana or ES logs? Also, one thing to note is that sending monitoring data to cloud via metricbeat is not yet supported. Here are some resources that might help you out with alternative setups though: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/cloud/current/ec-enable-monitoring.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/cloud/current/ec-enable-monitoring.html) > **[External collection for Elastic Stack Monitoring is now available via Metricbeat](https://www.elastic.co/blog/external-collection-for-elastic-stack-monitoring-is-now-available-via-metricbeat)** > > With Metricbeat for external collections, now you can collect and send monitoring data for the Elastic Stack using without having to depend on the health of the monitored services.

Please note that while the Monitoring functionality is free, the ability to monitor multiple clusters from the one central cluster is a paid feature - [https://www.elastic.co/subscriptions](https://www.elastic.co/subscriptions) (Multi-stack monitoring). ---
