With 1.14, there are two panes with seemingly redundant configuration options.

I use remote elastic DB - in settings->configuration, I configure the remote reporting database as elastic.

In settings->data management, I then configure it again, though slightly differently.

It appears to be working, except that in data management, it indicates that it isn't working with '200 remote database connection failed'.

I have data in the dashboard/reports/etc though, so I'm pretty sure it is working, and this configuration is just.. wrong? broken? does something else but has the same name?


Also, please get rid of the annoying sidebar balloons.  They're asking me to submit feedback every time I click on Zenarmor - my feedback is that is super annoying and also is not consistent with the OPNsense UI.  I have no interest in the cloud portal, which is why it's turned off.  Nagging me every single time I use it is not improving your situation there.

This is still a complete mystery to me - anyone know?  I've done a complete uninstall/reinstall and it's working now in general, but this configuration still makes no sense to me.
