Hi,

my pipline looks the following:  
log -\> filebeat -\> redis

Filebeat is giving me a lot of following errors:

```
2019-02-08T14:22:04.554Z INFO [publish] pipeline/retry.go:155 Drop batch
2019-02-08T14:22:04.614Z INFO [publish] pipeline/retry.go:155 Drop batch
2019-02-08T14:22:04.732Z INFO [publish] pipeline/retry.go:155 Drop batch
2019-02-08T14:22:04.790Z INFO [publish] pipeline/retry.go:155 Drop batch

```

But I see messages coming in in redis.  
What does the drop batch mean exactly? Do I lose log events? What can I improve?

filebeat and redis are running as docker on the same host in the same virtual docker network.  
File is mounted from outside into filebeat container.

Thanks, Andreas
