Hello

  The message "Kibana server is not ready yet" is normally related to an elasticsearch issue. Could you please check the elasticsearch logs? It's probably located at: `/var/log/elasticsearch/wazuh-cluster.log`. 
In addition to this, I can see in your filebeat status image an error, but not the complete message. Could you please check `/var/log/filebeat/filebeat`? Or `systemctl status filebeat -l` and expand to right. 

Regards,

Ok, I see that you have installed all the components in the same host. And the certificates created are associated with the 127.0.0.1 address, which is correct for an installation with all the components within the same host.
So, you need to replace in filebeat.yml configuration file the output.elasticsearch.hosts: IP 172.16.0.172 by 127.0.0.1. Do the same in the file kibana.yml: elasticsearch.hosts: https://127.0.0.1:9200

Then, restart both services: systemctl restart filebeat and systemctl restart kibana
Please let me know if it works.
Regards,

thank for your reply but still its not working. FYI when the OVA first installed there is no IP assigned to the server and i manually add the IP does it affect the wazuh manager in any way? or does this OVA need internet connection to be functional?

When you import the OVA, depending on your virtualization tool, it will take or not automatically an IP. The OVA is configured to try a DHCP. You should configure your tool accordingly, or enter the VM and type `dhclient`. Or assign manually an IP. But you should not change the IPs of configuration files in the OVA. 

What error presents now? Try to change the `network.host` of `elasticsearch.yml` from the IP to `0.0.0.0` and restart with `systemctl restart elasticsearch`. 
Could you please attach the `wazuh-cluster.log` and `filebeat` log files?
