Logstash kafka plugin

When sending logs from kafka to ES, if ES is down and logstash fails to send to ES, will it continue to consume messages from kafka or does it stop consuming as it fails to send?

Thanks

logstash has internal queues. Once they are full it will stop consuming.

i am sorry. i did not understand it . i am using kafka input plugin to read from kafka and sending to ES. When what is full it will stop consuming?

Thanks

When the internal queue in logstash is full it will stop reading from kafka.
