Hi, there,

For many servers (especially for big company's servers), they are composed by multiple servers as a cluster. So, the logs are also replica on all the servers. In this case, if we install filebeat/beats on each individual server, there will be log duplications. What's the best solution to avoid the log duplication?

Thanks!
