Hello, I have been having this issue when I try to send server logs to logstash..
Java stack trace server logs sent to Logstash with their own input.conf filter.conf and output.conf
and
Cisco ASA firewall logs going to the same Logstash with their own input.conf filter.conf and output.conf
When I do both of these at the same time in the same logstash the data gets mixed up some times and Ill see firewall logs in the java stack trace index.. or vice versa
Will adding more pipeline workers fix this ?

Running the two configurations in different pipelines might. it depends on how you have configured logstash.

So how do you separate the pipelines? because right now I have two .. but the input from one is going to both indexes . and I have 4 pipeline workers

```auto
beats {
port => 15044
}
}
filter {
}
output {
elasticsearch {
hosts => ["xxxxx:9500"]
manage_template => false
index => "devtest-%{[@metadata][beat]}-%{[@metadata][version]}-%{+YYYY.MM.dd}"
}
}
```

Yes .. basically this has to be in the pipeline.yml..
```auto
- pipeline.id: main
path.config: "/etc/logstash/conf.d/15044-pipeline.conf"
pipeline.workers: 2
- pipeline.id: secondary
path.config: "/etc/logstash/conf.d/5045-test-pipeline.conf"
queue.type: persisted
```
It seems to be working but Ill be doing more test on it over this weekend .. thank you
