So..

As the OS are CentOS6 on both side, I think I run in this problem : [https://access.redhat.com/solutions/22717](https://access.redhat.com/solutions/22717)  
(I don't have RedHat account - so I don't see the full ticket)

Problem is known here : [Logstash vs NFS (null characters)](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/logstash-vs-nfs-null-characters/25918)

This post is a good summary : [https://serverfault.com/questions/707034/disable-file-cache-for-mount-point](https://serverfault.com/questions/707034/disable-file-cache-for-mount-point)  
Now I have to find a workaround, A local FileBeat will probably suffer in the same way.
