Filebeat docker on mac connecting to logstash deployed in Openshift

Hi all,

I am newbie to elk and filebeat. I have deployed EK(version 7.6.1) operator and logstash(version 7.6.1) in openshift. This scenaio works fine when I upload logs file to logstash. Now I am want to use filebeat to send data to logstash. I have Filebeat running as a docker container on Mac. On startup of filebeat docker I was expecting to see some logging with regards to connection success/failure to logstash. Also on startup I am mounting local log files to /usr/share/filebeaat/data folder but I don't see any processing logs. Any advice, much appreciated.

Thanks
Raj
