Removes `testenv` annotations and related code. These annotations originally let you skip x-pack snippet tests in the docs. However, that's no longer possible. Relates to #79309, #31619

Each {es} node, {ls} node, {kib} instance, and Beat instance is considered
|
|
unique in the cluster based on its persistent UUID, which is written to the
|
|
<<path-settings,`path.data`>> directory when the node or instance starts.
|
|
|
|
Monitoring documents are just ordinary JSON documents built by monitoring each
|
|
{stack} component at a specified collection interval. If you want to alter the
|
|
templates for these indices, see <<config-monitoring-indices>>.
|
|
|
|
{metricbeat} is used to collect monitoring data and to ship it directly to the
|
|
monitoring cluster.
