Hi, I'm sure I asked this before and was never able to get it working properly. With Logstash 2.2 is it possible to run two or more completely independent instances of Logstash at the same time? if so, are there any specific instructions for how to do this on a Windows box? Many thanks. ---

It is possible to run multiple instances of logstash on one host. I've run up to 5 at times. But I have only done it on linux. Just make sure each instance use a different config. That's it. Tin ---
