Hi @Ganesh2303, as far as I know that is not possible, at least with the main config file... What are the differences between the configs? You could try using [multiple pipelines](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/6.6/multiple-pipelines.html) or start several Logstash instances with individual config files. ---
