Hi, I am running logstash 5.6.4 on el6 and el7 hosts.

I found el6 shows fqdn for "host" field but el7 shows a short one.  
How can I make logstash always print fqdn?

I tested with the command below:  
/usr/share/logstash/bin/logstash --debug -e 'input { stdin {} } output { stdout { codec =\> rubydebug } }'
