## Summary Add Elastic Agent as another way to collect monitoring data. This work is tracked by https://github.com/elastic/observability-docs/issues/2602. There will be additional PRs to address changes required to monitoring docs for other stack components. TBH, it pains me a bit to see how many places users need to go to find info about stack monitoring, but fixing that problem is not in scope for these updates unfortunately. :-/ Please respond to questions addressed to reviewers. ### Checklist Delete any items that are not applicable to this PR. - [x] Any text added follows [EUI's writing guidelines](https://elastic.github.io/eui/#/guidelines/writing), uses sentence case text and includes [i18n support](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/blob/main/packages/kbn-i18n/README.md) ### To Do before merging - [x] Remove questions to reviewers. --------- Co-authored-by: Kevin Lacabane <klacabane@gmail.com>

|
|
== Supported platforms
|
|
|
|
Packages of Kibana are provided for and tested against Linux, Darwin, and
|
|
Windows. Since Kibana runs on Node.js, we include the necessary Node.js
|
|
binaries for these platforms. Running Kibana against a separately maintained
|
|
version of Node.js is not supported.
|
|
|
|

|
|
[[elasticsearch-version]]
|
|
== Elasticsearch version
|
|
|
|
Kibana should be configured to run against an Elasticsearch node of the same
|
|
version. This is the officially supported configuration.
|
|
|
|
Running different major version releases of Kibana and Elasticsearch (e.g.
|
|
Kibana 5.x and Elasticsearch 2.x) is not supported, nor is running a minor
|
|
version of Kibana that is newer than the version of Elasticsearch (e.g. Kibana
|
|
5.1 and Elasticsearch 5.0).
|
|
|
|
Running a minor version of Elasticsearch that is higher than Kibana will
|
|
generally work in order to facilitate an upgrade process where Elasticsearch
|
|
is upgraded first (e.g. Kibana 5.0 and Elasticsearch 5.1). In this
|
|
configuration, a warning will be logged on Kibana server startup, so it's only
|
|
meant to be temporary until Kibana is upgraded to the same version as
|
|
Elasticsearch.
|
|
|
|
Running different patch version releases of Kibana and Elasticsearch (e.g.
|
|
Kibana 5.0.0 and Elasticsearch 5.0.1) is generally supported, though we
|
|
encourage users to run the same versions of Kibana and Elasticsearch down to
|
|
the patch version.
