Hi,

Configuration set up documentation for logstash and filebeat to restart the those services. (ELK installed as a service since not able to see the bin folder to restart the logstash service).

Added file in conf.d in logstash and modified changes filebeat.yml then which is not reflected in kibana without restart. I am not able to restart those services since i am not able to see bin folders in logastash and kibana and ELK installed as service.

Please consult your operating system documentation for more information on how to start/stop/restart services.
