title: Connect kibana to elasticsearch in kubernetes cluster
body: <p>I have a running elasticsearch cluster and I am trying to connect kibana to this cluster (same node). Currently the page hangs when I try to open the service in my browser using :. . In my kibana pod logs, the last few log messages in the pod are:</p>
  
  <pre><code>{"type":"log","@timestamp":"2017-10-13T17:23:46Z","tags":["listening","info"],"pid":1,"message":"Server running at http://0.0.0.0:5601"}
  {"type":"log","@timestamp":"2017-10-13T17:23:46Z","tags":["status","ui settings","error"],"pid":1,"state":"red","message":"Status changed from uninitialized to red - Elasticsearch plugin is red","prevState":"uninitialized","prevMsg":"uninitialized"}
  {"type":"log","@timestamp":"2017-10-13T17:23:49Z","tags":["status","plugin:ml@5.6.3","error"],"pid":1,"state":"red","message":"Status changed from yellow to red - Request Timeout after 3000ms","prevState":"yellow","prevMsg":"Waiting for Elasticsearch"}
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>My kibana.yml file that is mounted into the kibana pod has the following config:</p>
  
  <pre><code>server.name: kibana-logging
  server.host: 0.0.0.0 
  elasticsearch.url: http://elasticsearch:9300
  xpack.security.enabled: false
  xpack.monitoring.ui.container.elasticsearch.enabled: true 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and my elasticsearch.yml file has the following config settings (I have 3 es pods)</p>
  
  <pre><code>cluster.name: elasticsearch-logs
  node.name: ${HOSTNAME}
  network.host: 0.0.0.0
  
  bootstrap.memory_lock: false
  xpack.security.enabled: false
  discovery.zen.minimum_master_nodes: 2
  discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts: ["172.17.0.3:9300", "172.17.0.4:9300", "172.17.0.4:9300"]
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I feel like the issue is currently with the <code>network.host</code> field but I'm not sure. What fields am I missing/do I need to modify in order to connect to a kibana pod to elasticsearch if they are in the same cluster/node? Thanks!</p>
  
  <p>ES Service:</p>
  
  <pre><code>apiVersion: v1
  kind: Service
  metadata:
    name: elasticsearch
    labels:
      component: elasticsearch
      role: master
  spec:
    type: NodePort
    selector:
      component: elasticsearch
      role: master
    ports:
    - name: http
      port: 9200
      targetPort: 9200
      nodePort: 30303
      protocol: TCP
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Kibana Svc</p>
  
  <pre><code>apiVersion: v1
  kind: Service
  metadata:
    name: kibana

      targetPort: 5601

  </code></pre>
  
  <p>EDIT:
  After changing port to 9200 in kibana.yml here is what i see in the logs at the end when I try and access kibana:</p>
