My installation of Elasticsearch 6.8.22 does not include an installation of X-Pack because so far we have not needed any of its features.
I am generating profiling data on queries, using the Profile API, but I want to use the Search Profiler UI capabilities available in Kibana. The documentation says that this is part of X-Pack.
My questions are:
- Do I have to install all of X-Pack in order to use the Search Profiler UI, or is it possible to install only certain features?
- Do I have to install X-Pack on the entire Elasticsearch cluster where I am running the query in order to profile it?
- Can I isolate the X-Pack installation by creating a new separate Kibana installation on its own server and connecting to my cluster, or does the X-Pack installation need to be on one or more Elasticsearch servers in my cluster?

the answer to 1 is it need to be installed as an entire package
the answer to 2 is yes, the entire cluster
the answer to 3 is no, see question 2
