1) Prerequisite : Properly configured Hot / Warm Elasticsearch cluster with correct node attributes.

2) Configure Metricbeat to point directly to Elasticsearch and run setup

NOTE: When metricbeat setup is run, it will overwrite the ILM Policy and recreate the bootstrap index with that policy,
this is often confusing. Running setup also creates all the dashboards, index templates etc. so it is very useful. 
As part of the template it will name the ILM policy and rollover_alias in this example metricbeat-7.4.0

./metricbeat setup

Setting up Docker, Rancher, and Traefik with Monitoring Tools in a Secure Environment

This Cloud-Init script facilitates a robust deployment of Docker, Rancher, Traefik, and integrates Prometheus, Grafana, and Loki for comprehensive monitoring within an isolated environment, leveraging the ubuntu/jammy/cloud LXD image. Meticulous attention has been given to fortify the infrastructure, implementing strict access controls, minimal container permissions, and automated SSL provisioning via Traefik integrated with Cloudflare for seamless certificate renewal.

Requirements

• Operational knowledge of LXD, Docker, Rancher, and Cloudflare.
• Access to the ubuntu/jammy/cloud LXD image.
• Additionally, refer to Monitoring Stack Gist for deploying the monitoring stack.
