"Hello Community,

I've always found great support here, and I'm hoping for the same assistance again. In my application, I'm dealing with three different types of logs. These logs are **sent to Logstash via Filebeat,** where they are parsed and relevant information is extracted. Each type of log has its own configuration file in Logstash, resulting in **three separate indices in Elasticsearch.** I can visualize these indices in Kibana.

**All three types of logs share a common attribute/field**. What I want to do is merge these logs based on **this common attribute and analyze them collectively in Kibana**. When I had a single-node Elasticsearch setup, I achieved this by creating a **merge.conf** file in Logstash, which mapped the common attribute from all three indices. I used to run this Logstash configuration file using **cron jobs**.

Now, I've migrated to **a 3-node Elasticsearch cluster.** I need guidance on how to achieve this merging and analysis considering the new cluster setup.

Thanks a lot in advance for your help!"
