Installing SEAL Elastic Stack¶

The installation consists of a server an a client part which you have to install separately.

Server:

The server part includes Elasticsearch and Kibana. You have to install it on the management server.
Client:

The client part contains Filebeat. You have to install it on the PLOSSYS 5 server.

Management Server¶

Hint - Disc Space

Before installing the Elastic Stack server part, make sure that you have enough disk space available on the installation device. If the amount of free space is less than about 10 % of the device's total capacity, Elasticsearch will lock the created indices and Kibana will not start properly.
