Hi,

I want to create ansible code to secure the password of the logstash user to send data to Elasticsearch. I have checked with the procedure with the keystore and it works fine to create the keystore but to add the key, I have an issue to answer the password on the prompt. Did someone already configured this by ansible?

thx!
