Hi,

Please can someone tell me if I can change the path : path.data: /var/lib/logstash

and make it in /data ??

Sure, you can do that. I suggest you

  • shut down Logstash,
  • copy the contents of /var/lib/logstash into the new location,
  • verify that file ownership and permissions of the new directory and the copied files matches the previous location,
  • change logstash.yml to point to the new path, and
  • start Logstash again.
