In all my cases I do not want to use .logstash\_jdbc\_last\_run

how do I avoid using it.  
I uses following option but it still try to use .logstash\_jdbc\_last\_run and fails sometime when two or more jdbc trying to use that.

```
clean_run=>true

```

I don't want to use .logstash\_jdbc\_last\_run

Then set [record\_last\_run](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/current/plugins-inputs-jdbc.html#plugins-inputs-jdbc-record_last_run) to false.

If you want to use .logstash\_jdbc\_last\_run in multiple inputs you will need to set last\_run\_metadata\_path to point each input to its own file.

Perefect. I had 15 pipeline on a system and each was using jdbc. and one or two was failing due to this reason.

Added record\_last\_run=\>false for all and restarted logstash. Everything started up.
