Hello,

Whenever multiple "hosts" are specified in the elasticsearch output plugin, the request is load balanced.

I'm not wanting to do this.

Instead, whenever the hosts settings contains both host A and host B, I'm wanting the document sent to both.

Can someone tell me how to accomplish this? Thank you.

Nevermind. Resolved. Just needed to create a separate elasticsearch output
