Hi Friends,  
Need help with my configuration. I am trying to see if i can configure filebeat to ingest redis slow logs into my elasticsearch cluster. before that want to see if i get the events listed to console

here is my snippet from filebeat.yml

```auto
output.console:
  pretty: true

```

modules.d/redis.yml

```auto
- module: redis
  log:
    enabled: false
    var.paths: ["/path/to/log/redis/redis-server.log*"]
  # Slow logs, retrieved via the Redis API (SLOWLOG)
  slowlog:
    enabled: true
    # The Redis hosts to connect to.
    var.hosts: ["elasticache1.xyxxnd.ng.0001.usw2.cache.amazonaws.com:6379"]

```

my output doesnt show any list of events

my setup:

running file beat on Mac OS with version  
filebeat-7.2.0-darwin-x86\_64

./filebeat -e

seems like filebeat could connect to elasticache endpoint but never shows me anything

Ok, looks like my configuration is good except for there are no slow logs in redis, so we have empty set result coming back

this is resolved now
