Hi,

If we enable persistent queue in logstash. Does, it disable dead letter queue?  
I have logstash with dead letter queue enabled and receiving log files. Once, i enabled persistent queue the dead letter queue stopped receiving logs in to dead letter queue.  
Is it expected behavior? Or i am a missing anything?  
Please, help me out.
