Configuration fileedit
To configure APM Server, you can also update the apm-server.yml
configuration file.
For rpm and deb,
you’ll find the configuration file at /etc/apm-server/apm-server.yml
.
For mac and win, look in the archive that you extracted.
See Config File Format in Beats Platform Reference for more about the structure of the config file.
apm-server: host: localhost:8200 output: elasticsearch: hosts: ElasticsearchAddress:9200
The output section, like in other Beats, contains settings describing how and where to store the data.
If you are using an X-Pack secured version of Elastic Stack, you need to specify credentials in the config file before you run the commands that set up and start APM Server. For example:
output.elasticsearch: hosts: ["ElasticsearchAddress:9200"] username: "elastic" password: "elastic"
See Configuring APM Server for more configuration options.
