Hello,
I have configured FileBeat to ship a log file to Elasticsearch directly.
After all harvesters have already automatically stopped with a close\_inactive message, I ran a count check in the filebeat indices in ES.
While the number of lines in the log file is 689398 according to wc -l, the number of documents in the index is only 6849.
Does this mean that not all logs have been shipped? What should I do?
Thank you

Hi @AvivCohn 🙂
Have you check the contents of the registry file? [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/filebeat/current/migration-registry-file.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/filebeat/current/migration-registry-file.html)
At the same time, it might be helpful if you give us some information like the configuration used, version of Filebeat and the size and format of the logs file.
