and installing with Guide : http://elk-docker.readthedocs.io/ Will guide me so that I can have a elk stack ?

Answer 1

Try using docker compose

docker-compose.yml

elk:
  image: sebp/elk
  ports:
    - "5601:5601"
    - "9200:9200"
    - "5044:5044"
  environment:
    - ELASTICSEARCH_USER=elastic
    - ELASTICSEARCH_PASSWORD=s0m3C0mpl3xP@ssw0rd!
    - LOGSTASH_USER=elastic
    - LOGSTASH_PASSWORD=s0m3C0mpl3xP@ssw0rd!
    - KIBANA_USER=kibana
    - KIBANA_PASSWORD=s0m3C0mpl3xP@ssw0rd!

$ docker-compose up -d elk

Answer 2

As error showing that max virtual memory areas vm.max_map_count [65530] is too low, increase to at least [262144]

so you need to increase memory by running below command

vm.max_map_count = 262144

and run it again
