How to Resolve Manually
This config rule checks if an ElasticSearch Domain is configured to send logs to CloudWatch service. If logging is not configured for an Elasticearch domain, the rule will be marked as non-compliant.
In order to resolve this, you will need to first head on over to the Amazon ElasticSearch Service within your AWS Console. Ensure to select the correct region from where your ElasticSearch domain is located.
Once there, choose the domain you want to configure logging for and and enable the desired CloudWatch logs from the Logs tab. By clicking the Log Type and then clicking on Enable, we can create a new Log Group and Policy required to setup logging. Check the following picture for further reference:
Note that this rule will become compliant if any of the available log types is enabled.
