Elastic Stack Beats

See the output after i commented out the console section:

this is just the startup log. /dev/stdout being closed will become only visible if filebeat tries to publish events.

How can i verify from logs that data has been pushed by filebeat?

Any updates steffens?

You should see in the log file something like X events sent. Best is to change the log level to debug, then you see all changes.

@Roshan_r the logs posted have been very incomplete. Disabling the console output in config file should help with error being reported. As @ruflin suggested, you can turn on info/debug log in order to see successfull/failed send attempts in filebeat logs.
