Hi,

We have multiple vhost on the same server as below

web.xyz.access.log  
app.xyz.access.log

Is it possible to define two index name in the filebeat configuration or by creating separate yml file?

web.xyz.access.log --\> Index Name - web  
app.xyz.access.log --\> Index Name - app

As per default configuration, We have defined different document type for both log fine and both access logs inserting data in the single index.

Kindly help.
