Attempting to make winlogbeat run on a Windows box and wonder about this issues from the log:
2019-12-07T13:31:20.231+0100 INFO [index-management] idxmgmt/std.go:182 Set output.elasticsearch.index to 'winlogbeat-7.5.0' as ILM is enabled.
2019-12-07T13:31:20.748+0100 INFO [monitoring] log/log.go:118 Starting metrics logging every 30s

Would I need to turn off ILM (setup.ilm.enabled: false) when I attempt to use a custom index, eg.:
output.elasticsearch:
# Array of hosts to connect to.
hosts: ["<redacted>"]
# Optional protocol and basic auth credentials.
protocol: "https"
username: "<redacted>"
password: "<redacted>"
# Optional index name. The default is "winlogbeat" plus date
# and generates [winlogbeat-]YYYY.MM.DD keys.
# In case you modify this pattern you must update setup.template.name and setup.template.pattern accordingly.
index: "siempoc_winlogbeat-%{[agent.version]}-%{+yyyy.MM.dd}"
setup.template.enabled: false
setup.template.name: "siempoc_winlogbeat"
setup.template.pattern: "siempoc_winlogbeat-*"
How do I turn off/change monitoring interval?
How do I let winlogbeat get access to Windows Sysmon channel (sorry, newbie Windoze, after +20Y Uni*
