Exclude Lines containing specific string from IIS Logs

[nyarlath (alex)]

Hello all,

I have a simple question, but i cannot find an answer that satisfies me.
I am sending IIS 7.5 logs to logstash, but we have a monitoring tool that is doing a healthcheck every minute.
The message line is like this :

2019-03-22 09:32:21 W3SVC2 DEV-SERVER-001 10.0.143.17 GET /health-monitoring - 80 - 10.0.143.12 HTTP/1.1 - - - www.dev-site.com 200 0 0 274 81 15

so it gives :

And I don't want the lines containing the word "health" to be sent, because they are pointless to me, and polluting my views and my index.

I tried on filebeat side to add this :
exclude_lines: ['.*health.*']

in the iis.yml file, but still they are sent.

Oh, and this is my logstash config file :

input {
 beats {
  port => 5044
  #type => "iis"
 }
}

filter {
  dissect {
    mapping => {
      message => '%{log_timestamp} %{+log_timestamp} %{s-sitename} %{s-computername} %{s-ip} %{cs-method} %{cs-uri-stem} %{cs-uri-query} %{s-port} %{cs-username} %{c-ip} %{cs-version} %{cs-user-agent} %{cs-cookie} %{cs-referer} %{cs-host} %{sc-status} %{sc-substatus} %{sc-win32-status} %{sc-bytes} %{cs-bytes} %{time-taken}'
    }
  }
}


output {
 elasticsearch {
    hosts => "localhost:9200"
    manage_template => false
    index => "%{[@metadata][beat]}-iis-%{+YYYY.MM.dd}"
    document_type => "%{[@metadata][type]}"
  }
 stdout { codec => rubydebug }
}

Thank you for your help.

if [cs-uri-stem] == "/health-monitoring" { drop {} }

or

if [cs-uri-stem] =~ /health/ { drop {} }
