Does filebeat support live reload when there is change in output elastic list of hosts config ? In our use, the list of elastic host may change dynamically in certain scenarios and wondering if there is support to live reload filebeat on output config change.

Hi @vramakrishnan, output live reload is not supported at the moment. Could you explain a little bit about your use case? One possible solution could be using Logstash.
