Non-zero metrics in the last 30s

Elastic Stack Beats
1

Hi, I'm completely new to ELK and I need to create an index in ElasticSearch using Filebeat.
When I execute Filebeat.exe it doesn't create the index and it says:

2021-02-20T09:23:57.477+0100	INFO	[monitoring]	log/log.go:144	Non-zero metrics in the last 30s	{"monitoring": {"metrics": {"beat":{"cpu":{"system":{"ticks":156,"time":{"ms":156}},"total":{"ticks":249,"time":{"ms":249},"value":249},"user":{"ticks":93,"time":{"ms":93}}},"handles":{"open":211},"info":{"ephemeral_id":"5ed76ca2-ff46-4756-a872-e9b331a13a36","uptime":{"ms":30131}},"memstats":{"gc_next":18102544,"memory_alloc":9969536,"memory_sys":31235112,"memory_total":42690328,"rss":51200000},"runtime":{"goroutines":31}},"filebeat":{"events":{"added":2,"done":2},"harvester":{"open_files":1,"running":1,"started":1}},"libbeat":{"config":{"module":{"running":0},"reloads":1,"scans":1},"output":{"events":{"active":0},"type":"elasticsearch"},"pipeline":{"clients":1,"events":{"active":0,"filtered":2,"total":2}}},"registrar":{"states":{"current":2,"update":2},"writes":{"success":2,"total":2}},"system":{"cpu":{"cores":8}}}}}

I don't know what am i doing wrong? Any idea?

Here si my filebeat.yml:

filebeat.inputs:

- type: log

  enabled: true
  
  paths:
    - C:\Users\Marc\Desktop\ELK\test\testTxt*
    
- type: filestream

  enabled: false

  paths:
    - /var/log/*.log

filebeat.config.modules:
  path: ${path.config}/modules.d/*.yml

  reload.enabled: false

setup.template.settings:
  index.number_of_shards: 1
setup.ilm.enabled: false
setup.template.enabled: false

setup.kibana:

    host: "localhost:5601"

output.elasticsearch:
  hosts: ["localhost:9200"]
  index: "testTxt"
  username: "elastic"
  password: "********************"

processors:

And there is the last log:

Welcome to our community! :smiley:

Is this the first time you have tried to process the file? If not then chances are Filebeat is tracking the state of the file and is waiting for new data to be added to it. You can try to remove the registry entry for that file, or add some new data to it.

Hello warkolm. It's not the first time try to process this file, but always with the same result. It consists in a .txt of a couple of lines. I've tried adding a new line while filebeat is executing and nothing changed, it still saying: [Non-zero metrics in the last 30s].

Is this the place where is should find my index?

Thanks for your help!

I can't see the testTxt index. I would suggest you clear your Filebeat registry and restart Filebeat, it should pick the file up again.
