Hi, I have a log with mixed metrics: cpu, filesystem, ping, uptime, etc...How can I direct each metric from Filebeat to his respective configuration in logstash?

 ![pregunta](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/b/3/b3f78a4a818ec243f6d881f566753d870b5e7977.png)

I also can use powershell to separate the metrics in his respective log file, same question as the above?

 ![pregunta2](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/3/9/393719a38b84dc98f74600ccb53c203e35500e7a.png)

Thanks!
