Filebeat on kubernetes as non root?

Elastic Stack Beats

Hi,

What possibilities do I have to run filebeat in kubernetes as non-root user and access the docker container logs? Our datacenter team don't really like privileged root processes :wink:

So I want to avoid if possible / keep the number of privileged containers as low as possible.

Thanks, Andreas

Are you following the setup at this documentation page? My understanding is that you shouldn't generally need privileged containers unless you're using OpenShift. If that setup doesn't work for you, could you share more about your configuration / what problems you run into running non-privileged?
