Hello,  
is it possible to bypass the cgroup files searching on logstash?

I'm using Logstash7.0 on windows 7 and I am stuck in an infinite loop.

i have this type of debug log:  
[DEBUG][logstash.instrument.periodicpoller.cgroup] One or more required cgroup files or directories not found: /proc/self/cgroup, /sys/fs/cgroup/cpuacct.

Thanks.
