Hi, what is the meaning of this line in filebeat logs?

2019-07-22T09:41:10.690+0200 INFO [publish] pipeline/retry.go:155 Drop batch

I have this line very regularly, but as I see it data is shipped to redis as it should be. Yes, Redis is my output.

Regards, Andreas

@asp

Looking at the code, I see that the redis output can drop events if it fails to serialize them. Is there any error similar to `Encoding event Failed` before the `Drop Batch`?
