Please don't use such long subjects, make it a summary of your problem rather than part of the question. Otherwise it's hard for other people to follow and provide help :slight_smile:

This is a too wide question.

Anyway:

  • Why do you want to use logstash for?
  • Did you look at filebeat yet?

yes. I looked into filebeat but I am getting problem in installation and as per my requirement I need to use logstash

Which was?

What for? What kind of logs do you want to read? What kind of transformation do you want to do?
I mean it's perfectly fine to use Logstash as soon as you have a use case for it, like transforming data. But collecting log file with logstash is kind of a bad architecture design IMO.

Anyway, if you want to it, have a look at the file-input-plugin of logstash: File input plugin | Logstash Reference [8.11] | Elastic
