Filebeat getting stopped automatically after sometime

Hi,

I am using 7.4.2 version filebeat. Issue is my filebeat service gets stopped automatically after running for sometime. But whenever I start it will crawl properly and log data into elastic search properly for certain duration. But unexpectedly after sometime (may be 1 or 2 hours time) filebeat service will get stopped. There are no evident errors in logs.

PFB the logs from filebeat runtime.

Welcome to our community! :smiley:

It looks like something is asking Filebeat to stop. Is there anything in your OS logs that might show anything related?
