How to run the logstash automatically "Services" in Windows, once when the system restarted?
To accomplish this, I installed NSSM first on the system I wanted the service to run from. NSSM which is Non-Sucking Service Manager is an application to help you create services.
After installing it I ran the following command using PowerShell:
Invoke-Expression –command “c:\ ELK\nssm\win64\nssm install Logstash”
Once NSSM opens you'll need to set the Path, Startup directory, and the Arguments. Below is what i use on my nodes.
Path: c:\ELK\logstash\bin\logstash.bat
Startup directory: c:\ELK\logstash\bin
Arguments: -f c:\ELK\logstash\bin\logstash.conf
You can edit the details such as display name and description under details tab as well as other settings and you should be good to go.
