One prospector per configuration file in logstash

Elastic Stack Beats
1

Hi,

We have a filebeat instance with multiple prospectors, sending logs to logstash for parsing and ingesting into elasticsearch.

Is it possible to break the configuration file in multiple files, one for each prospector? The goal is to when a new application joining the system, a new file will be deployed to the filebeat folder (automated delivery). The concern is that since this is an automated process, when a new application joins, the whole configuration file has to be replaced, and any mistake would affect another prospector. Deploying to separated files would prevent that.

Thanks,
Rob

That's a filebeat question, not a logstash question. You are more likely to get an answer if you ask your question in the right forum (or move it).

Sorry, you're right. Wrong queue.
Thanks,
