Hi everyone,

I have configure my output conf in logstash to send to select data to different indexes but one it just stop working I dont think that I made any mistake in my codes any suggestions ?

below is my conf :

output {

```
if "_grokparsefailure" in [tags] {
  elasticsearch { host => '10.64.50.30'
                    protocol => "http"
                    cluster => "momocluster"
                   index => "grokfail"
   } }

if [host] == "indi01" {
  elasticsearch { host => '10.64.50.30'
                    protocol => "http"
                    cluster => "momocluster"
                   index => "indi01-%{+YYYY.MM}"
   } }

 if "indi02" in [host] {
  elasticsearch { host => '10.64.50.30'
                    protocol => "http"
                    cluster => "momocluster"
                   index => "indi02-%{+YYYY.MM}"
   } }

if [host] == "indi03" {
  elasticsearch { host => '10.64.50.30'
                    protocol => "http"
                    cluster => "momocluster"
                   index => "indi03-%{+YYYY.MM}"
   } }

if [host] == "indi04" {
  elasticsearch { host => '10.64.50.30'
                    protocol => "http"
                    cluster => "momocluster"
                   index => "indi04-%{+YYYY.MM}"
   } }

 if [host] == "indi05" {
  elasticsearch { host => '10.64.50.30'
                    protocol => "http"
                    cluster => "momocluster"
                   index => "indi05-%{+YYYY.MM}"
   } }

if [host] == "indi06" {
  elasticsearch { host => '10.64.50.30'
                    protocol => "http"
                    cluster => "momocluster"
                   index => "indi06-%{+YYYY.MM}"
   } }

if [host] == "indi07" {
  elasticsearch { host => '10.64.50.30'
                    protocol => "http"
                    cluster => "momocluster"
                   index => "indi07-%{+YYYY.MM}"
   } }

if [host] == "indi08" {
  elasticsearch { host => '10.64.50.30'
                    protocol => "http"
                    cluster => "momocluster"
                   index => "indi08-%{+YYYY.MM}"
   } }

    if [type] == "syslog" {
  elasticsearch { host => '10.64.50.30'
                    protocol => "http"
                    cluster => "momocluster"
                   index => "graylog2_0"
   } }

  stdout { codec => rubydebug }

```

}

On sense :

GET /indi08/ufdb/\_search :

{  
"took": 1,  
"timed\_out": false,  
"\_shards": {  
"total": 3,  
"successful": 3,  
"failed": 0  
},  
"hits": {  
"total": 0,  
"max\_score": null,  
"hits": []  
}  
}

It was working correctly, it stopped output to the indexes. In the Logs of logstash.stdout the filter is done correctly.

Is indi08 an alias to all [indi08-YYYY.MM](http://indi08-YYYY.MM) indexes?

Not that it has anything to do with your problem, but you can replace your eight indiNN outputs with a single output (which also drops the `cluster` option which isn't useful for HTTP):

```auto
if [host] =~ /^indi\d{2}$/ {
  elasticsearch {
    host => '10.64.50.30'
    protocol => "http"
    index => "%{host}-%{+YYYY.MM}"
  }
}

```
