I'd like to remove the log that filebeat generates every 30s,  
It starts with :

```auto
021-01-18T08:29:59.656-0500#011INFO#011[monitoring]#011log/log.go:145#011Non-zero metrics in the last 30s#011{"monitoring": {"metrics": {"beat":{"cgroup":{"memory":{"mem":{"usage":{"bytes":4096}}}},"cpu":{"system":

```

In the yaml it should be possible to exclude line based on a regex, i tried though so far not succesfully, any ideas on how to filter it out ?

exclude\_lines=

It would also be great if this could be logged only every 10 minutes or so but thats a seccond question
