I have setup Cluster master, indexer cluster & Search head cluster. I have a new environment for monitoring console. When I go to  Settings > Monitoring Console > Settings > General Setup  & switch to Distributed mode servers are not showing up under remote instances. Can someone help me on it.

Nope. Can you provide me the guidelines to add it.

Settings -> Distributed Environment -> Distributed Search -> Search Peers -> Add New

As I said before - for SHC you only need to add the CM, the indexers should populate automatically. The rest of the components you need to add one by one.

Then in the distributed monitoring console you'll have to set up roles for each of those components.

And did you add your components as search peers to your MC? (for the indexer cluster you only need to add the CM)
