I have a following configuration.  
when I run this from command line it works and reads file  
but when I run it via pipleline it never reads this file.  
pipeline shows it is running

Am I missing something here ?  
I am generating file hourly and putting it here. every time it is new file name.  
that way it has no same inode either and different name

xyz\_hourly.csv\_01  
xyz\_hourly.csv\_02  
xyz\_hourly.csv\_03

```
input {
    file {
       path => "/csv_files/*_hourly.csv*"
       start_position => "beginning"
       mode => "read"
       sincedb_path => "/dev/null"
       codec => plain { charset => "Windows-1252" }
    }
}
```

/csv\_files is NFS mounted file system

It was NFS issue.  
as soon as I moved that dir on local storage pipeline picked it up.
