I have installed filebeat on AIX 7.2. While starting the service getting following errors

Please help

Hi @Raghunath Dalal,

In your config file [I am guessing a file named filebeat.yml] that you are using to trigger filebeat, in that comment out add_docker_metadata and add_kubernetes_metadata.

That is change that line to 
#add_docker_metadata
#add_kubernetes_metadata

Then try. It will work.

We do not have Docker and Kubernetes in AIX. So it is complaining. 

Check out our blog https://community.ibm.com/community/user/blogs/aditya-kamath/2025/07/14/monitor-aix-with-elastic-beats-observability-on-ai
If you want to try other beats also.
