Notable changes
- Beats extensions no longer authenticate as the
elasticsuperuser to send data to Elasticsearch. Instead, passwords for thefilebeat_internal,metricbeat_internalandheartbeat_internalusers (inactive by default) must be set respectively in the.envfile. - Monitoring of Elasticsearch, Logstash and Kibana is enabled by default via the Metricbeat extension. A password for the
monitoring_internaluser (inactive by default) must be set in the.envfile for this to work. - Self-monitoring is enabled by default in all Beats extensions. A password for the
beat_systemuser (inactive by default) must be set in the.envfile for this to work. - Instructions for re-executing the setup were added. This allows resetting passwords to the values defined in the
.envfile, and forcing the creation of missing internal users and roles. - It is no longer required to rebuild the image of the
setupcontainer when switching between themainandtlsbranches.
