Stack Monitoring
editStack Monitoring
editYou can enable Stack Monitoring on Elasticsearch and Kibana to collect and ship their metrics and logs to a dedicated monitoring cluster.
To enable stack monitoring, simply reference the monitoring Elasticsearch cluster in the spec.monitoring
section of their specification.

You can configure an Elasticsearch cluster to monitor itself.
The monitoring cluster must be managed by ECK in the same Kubernetes cluster as the monitored one.
You can send metrics and logs to two different Elasticsearch monitoring clusters.
You can also enable Stack Monitoring on Elasticsearch only or on Kibana only. In the latter case, Kibana will not be available on the Stack Monitoring Kibana page (check View monitoring data in Kibana).
