Hi , i have an issue that i have two machine that ship iptables log with filebeat , when creating index pattern i found only one filebeat index pattern
i want to have index patterns by hostname
can you help me please
Hello, thanks for reaching out. Would you mind including relevant portions of your filebeat.yml
config? The following reference config suggests using a setting like the following:
index: "filebeat-%{[agent.version]}-%{+yyyy.MM.dd}"

thank you for your reply @Michael_Madden
Here is my filebeat.yml file
###################### Filebeat Configuration Example #########################
This file is an example configuration file highlighting only the most common
options. The filebeat.reference.yml file from the same directory contains all the
supported options with more comments. You can use it as a reference.
You can find the full configuration reference here:
https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/filebeat/index.html
For more available modules and options, please see the filebeat.reference.yml sample
configuration file.
#=========================== Filebeat inputs =============================
filebeat.inputs:
Each - is an input. Most options can be set at the input level, so
you can use different inputs for various configurations.
Below are the input specific configurations.
-
type: log
Change to true to enable this input configuration.
enabled: false
Paths that should be crawled and fetched. Glob based paths.
paths:
-
/var/log/*.log
#- c:\programdata\elasticsearch\logs*Exclude lines. A list of regular expressions to match. It drops the lines that are
matching any regular expression from the list.
#exclude_lines: ['^DBG']
Include lines. A list of regular expressions to match. It exports the lines that are
matching any regular expression from the list.
#include_lines: ['^ERR', '^WARN']
Exclude files. A list of regular expressions to match. Filebeat drops the files that
are matching any regular expression from the list. By default, no files are dropped.
#exclude_files: ['.gz$']
Optional additional fields. These fields can be freely picked
to add additional information to the crawled log files for filtering
#fields:
level: debug
review: 1
Multiline options
Multiline can be used for log messages spanning multiple lines. This is common
for Java Stack Traces or C-Line Continuation
The regexp Pattern that has to be matched. The example pattern matches all lines starting with [
#multiline.pattern: ^[
Defines if the pattern set under pattern should be negated or not. Default is false.
#multiline.negate: false
Match can be set to "after" or "before". It is used to define if lines should be append to a pattern
that was (not) matched before or after or as long as a pattern is not matched based on negate.
Note: After is the equivalent to previous and before is the equivalent to to next in Logstash
#multiline.match: after
#============================= Filebeat modules ===============================
filebeat.config.modules:
Glob pattern for configuration loading
path: ${path.config}/modules.d/*.yml
Set to true to enable config reloading
reload.enabled: false
Period on which files under path should be checked for changes
#reload.period: 10s
#==================== Elasticsearch template setting ==========================
setup.template.settings:
index.number_of_shards: 1
#index.codec: best_compression
#_source.enabled: false
i will try you solution and keep you updated , but i have another issue ,since i have filebeat* index pattern and an old filebeat index pattern i can't see a new index patterns of each day
is that a normal behaviour ?
