Elastic Stack Beats

Hi,

I have noticed that packetbeat key in redis (if we use redis output), is not recreated if the redis server restart.

restarting packetbeat after redis restart , recreate correctly the key.

Hi,

have you logstash configured to read from redis? What happens if logstash is off and you restart redis? Have you checked the connections between packetbeat and redis via netstat (before and after redis restart)? packetbeat should reconnect to redis on failure.
