Hopefully this is the right place to post this, and if not I apologize. I've installed ELK on a windows server 2016 machine with 8vcpu and 16gb of ram. I noticed that the cpu stays at 100%, even when I only have elasticsearch running.
From what I've read this isn't normal, especially when it is not even ingesting any logs. I'm not sure if I just missed something during the setup, but I've searched the forums and haven't really found anything that hinted at what it might be.
[2018-09-02T23:56:15,604][ERROR][org.logstash.Logstash ] java.lang.IllegalStateException: Logstash stopped processing because of an error: (SystemExit) exit
Edit:
Looks like it's the configuration file I was using for my fortigate. Tried a simple syslog config, and it worked perfectly. Guess I'll need to troubleshoot that. Gonna mark as closed, I'll figure out the config. I'm sure there are resources on that.
