whats the command for? i presume its for debug option but the documents state "With this command, Logstash concatenates three config files, /tmp/one, /tmp/two, and /tmp/three, and parses them into a single config".  
when i run this command on one my conf file with path access to 9000kb log file, its been running since 20 minutes with following ?  
does any one have idea about whats happening? my aim is to check why my logfiles are not reflected on kibana.
