How to configure ELK, Kibana? Have installed complete setup but not able to proceed further?
Hi All,
I have downloaded the complete setup of ELK. I have also updated all the required files. How to proceed further, how do i connect PEGA Platform to Filebeat etc. How to proceed further?
We could find to enter external log Url in below Path.
Path: "System:Settings >> Resource Url's" : External Logs URL: (what we should give here?) PFA.
Any Suggestions would be helpful. Thanks!

As far as I know, ELK only comes with Pega Kubernetes deployment OOTB. Are you performing Pega K8s deployment? Otherwise, you would have to set it up yourself, which is non-trivial.

Hi Kevin,
Thanks for the reply.
We are trying to integrate PEGA with ELK to monitor logs.
We can use Elasticsearch, Logstash, and Kibana (ELK) to manage your Pega® Platform log files. ELK provides access to system log files that help us diagnose and debug issues without having to download log files from each node in the cluster.
Thanks!

Great to hear that you have set up your ELK. The URL should be the Kibana access URL, which is independent of Pega. You can try to access the URL from a browser to confirm that it is working.

Unfortunately, Setup is not yet completed. We still need run all the .exe files of Filebeat, E,L,and K, during which we are facing issue. We started with runnning Filebeat using Powershell cmd prompt. But we could endup with Unauthorized access error.
Is there something exist as KIBANA Service in PEGA Cloud. Can we access that with our On-premise application or it can only be monitored for cloud service applications?

I don't think you can use Pegacloud Kibana service as it is tailored for Pegacloud environment. As I mentioned earlier, running Pega in kubernetes env (supported 8.2+) comes with pre-packaged ELK stack. Otherwise, you would have to set it up yourself. Most of the setup would be outside the scope of Pega product, e.g., links like this (you must have followed something similar): https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-elasticsearch-logstash-and-kibana-elk-stack-on-ubuntu-14-04
