Beats supports the same platforms as are supported by Golang: [https://golang.org/doc/install](https://golang.org/doc/install) So I don't know the details about HP-UX but I don't think it matches the criterias as you mentioned correctly. About shipping the logs: You could install Logstash directly on the machine or for example send them via syslog and use the LS syslog input?

Thank You Ruflin, Let me try second option... send via syslog and use the LS syslog input ---
