**Kibana version** : 8.14.0

**Elasticsearch version** : 8.14.0

**APM Server version** : 8.14.0

**APM Agent language and version** : Java Agent 1.38.0

I have installed Fleet server and I am using Apm agent integration. We monitor 98 applications. Using this as 2x Fleet Server and 1 elastic apm integration

**Steps to reproduce** :

Hello,

We monitor our Java applications through fleet server as Elastic Apm integration. There are almost 100 applications and this adds a lot of overhead. We catch most requests, but sometimes we get a request timed out error. I think the Fleet is having difficulty meeting the load amount. We have an idea to change the structure, use 2 fleet servers and use the same elastic APM integration to each of them. We think that this way we will distribute the load amount.

So can we add 1 elastic apm policies and use it on 2 fleet servers?

Is this possible? I expect your support regarding the error.

Fleet CPU usage: 200%

Thank you in advance for your support.

Hi beijing,

You can use the same APM integration with one Fleet-server policy, and enroll 2 fleet-server tot he same policy.  
About the error it looks like a 503, perhapas the fleet-server didn't respond because of overload.
