Logstash `9.2.0` has a known issue where Logstash will not start if a Persistent Queue has been defined with a size greater than `2 GiB`.

If you attempt to start Logstash `9.2.0` with any PQs where `queue.max_bytes` has been set to `2147483648`bytes or more, Logstash will fail to start.

We recommend not upgrading to Logstash `9.2.0` if you need to define a PQ greater than 2GiB.

More details in the [9.2.0 Release Notes](https://www.elastic.co/docs/release-notes/logstash#logstash-9.2.0-release-notes).
