Dear Team,

I am testing elk with filebeat for logs, I have setup kiban 6.3.2, es 6.3.2 and filebeat 6.3.2, I have 4 filebeat client machine 3 is sending logs but one machine is not sending logs last 12 hours, I am not using logstach in my testing network, please guide me whats a issue in this?  
and its seems like some time kibana may be es is not showing logs in kibana for few hours and suddenly kibana getting from logs from filebeat client machine, please suggest me what i need to do ?

My filebeat configuration below:-

```auto
filebeat.inputs:

# Each - is an input. Most options can be set at the input level, so
# you can use different inputs for various configurations.
# Below are the input specific configurations.

- type: log

  # Change to true to enable this input configuration.
  enabled: true

  # Paths that should be crawled and fetched. Glob based paths.
  paths:
    - /var/log/*.log
    - /opt/*
    - /opt/xxxxxx-logs-1/errorlog-1.err
    - /opt/xxxxxx-logs-1/slowlogs-1.log
    - /opt/xxxxxx-logs-2/errorlog-2.err
    - /opt/xxxxxx-logs-2/slowlogs-2.log

```

i am getting only error logs not getting slowlogs in kibana.

Have moved this discuss topic to beats channel. Someone should be able to help here. I have pinged the beats team internally too.

Thanks
