Known Issue
edit-
If the Elasticsearch output is not enabled, but
setup.template
options are present (like it’s the case in the default Metricbeat configuration), the Beat stops with an error: "Template loading requested but the Elasticsearch output is not configured/enabled". To avoid this error, disable the template loading explicitlysetup.template.enabled: false
