Hi,  
I have multiple pipelines(conf files) for various types of application logs in various folders.My requirement is to keep these pipelines running in the background so that real time,continuous indexes are created for my live log files.I can run these pipelines from command prompt/powershell for testing my offline log files but I need to keep them running in the background for real time log analysis.

So far I have copied all the pipelines in conf folder,defining pipeline path in pipeline.yml and restarting logstash service as my environment is Windows and logstash is installed as a service,but have not seen any new index being created in Kibana for recently copied log files to their respective folders.

Am I on the right track?  
Any help on this would be appreciated.

Thanking you.
