Elasticsearch Advanced Dashboard Elasticsearch Advanced Dashboard

Description

Now to install an advanced dashboard that uses both the Filebeat and Metricbeat datasources at the same time.

Now to install the 'OS stats - Linux' dashboard from https://grafana.com/grafana/dashboards/12626

Import a new dashboard using the ID 12626

Choose the correct Filebeat and Metricbeat datasources and then continue.

Not all panels will contain data, so you will need to edit the /etc/metricbeat/modules.d/system.yml file on the host running Metricbeat.

My /etc/metricbeat/modules.d/system.yml has these settings

# Module: system
