I'm having the logstash configuration where it picks up the log files from a folder and pushing it to the index.
This is how my input looks like:
input {
file {
path => "/home/chamith/work/ELK/sample_logs/gdcb_logs/GDCBAdapter_tdr.log*"
start_position => "beginning"
ignore_older => 0
sincedb_path => "/dev/null"
}
}
I've tried cron schedule for jdbc input, but then I'm quite unsure of doing it for file types.
How can I have a scheduler in the above to check for any new log files or whether any new rows have been added to a log file time to time? Or does the file plugin do this automatically ?
Any help could be appreciated.
