MSSQL Metrics - Configuration

Hi there,

We have our log files on a separate drive. How do I configure the beat to pick this up?
I've tried to google and found nothing.

Thanks Charles

Hi, you can use Filebeat, and the MSSQL module, to collect your logs. You can find documentation here. The var.paths setting specifies where the log files can be found.

Hi Kerry,

Thanks for the reply. The log files I’m referring to are .ldf files. Can this still be done using the mssql module?

Yep - this should work fine, ensure var.paths is setup to use those files (e.g. /path/to/log/*/*.ldf)
