Hi there,  
As described in the graphic

 ![08afb423-1ae1-453b-adf1-93c77f8aa0eb](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/6/a/6ac2018bde04b7e006371037c1a912f88fee76f2.jpeg)

metricbeat is deployed to each es node. For some cluster info like "status", will all these metricbeat get cluster status and send to endpoint? If I have a large es cluster, there will be much redundant logs. Any idea about it?

Thanks

I don't think so you will have any problem even if you have large es cluster. Still if you think there might be an issue then use logstash
