Folder shared for elastcisearch logs

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

Hi!

I want to store elasticsearch, kibana and logstash logs in a shared folder. Is that possible? I need to have a certain structure for the folder path? I am using 6.5 ELK version.

Thanks for your help!

I am not sure that's something that'd be supported, due to each process running as different users. That'd be a pain to manage.

Why do you want to do this?

Hi,

Thanks for your response! I want to put the logs from elastic into a shared folder because i don't want to give access to my machine to several users but i want them to be able to see the logs if something is wrong with service.

Why not ingest them into Elasticsearch and let them find it with Kibana?
