Hi all,  
We are collecting different metrics with the help of metricbeat 6.2.3. I want to see the total memory usage by filebeat in each server. What field is it in the metricbeat that shows those data? Is it system.process.memory.size value that I should look? or is there some other fields?

Thanks
