Hi guys,

I would be interesting in how you perform an update on filebeat.  
From what I have seen the live config reloading is not supported for the `filebeat.yml`.  
This means currently that after every change to that file, I have to run a `kubectl rollout restart ds filebeat`.

Is there some more elegant way to get this process merged?
