Hey gang,
I am trying the Filebeat Redis module on Kubernetes but can't seem to get past the following errors.
Error running input: error receiving slowlog data: dial tcp 127.0.0.1:6379: connect: connection refused

127.0.0.1:6379: connect: connection refused

loas - This is a dumb case - just for example - no one is listening to this port (6379)
check it:

nc -v 127.0.0.1 6379
