When multiple pipeline is configured for logstash running on docker with custom image then logstash pipeline gets started successfully, data transfer is not happened.

> ```
> Execution Steps:
> 1. Add below parameters in pipelines.yml
> - pipeline.id: in-take
> config.string: |
> input { file { path => "/var/log/sample.log" } }
> output { pipeline { send_to => ["file"] } }
> - pipeline.id: out-take
> config.string: |
> input { pipeline { address => "file" } }
> output { stdout {} }
> 2. Create a "Dockerfile" inside a directory "dockerLogstash"
> # vim Dockerfile
> FROM docker.elastic.co/logstash/logstash:6.4.1
> RUN rm -rf /usr/share/logstash/config/pipelines.yml
> RUN rm -rf /usr/share/logstash/config/logstash.yml
> RUN rm -rf /usr/share/logstash/pipeline/logstash.conf
> ADD config/pipelines.yml /usr/share/logstash/config/
> ADD config/logstash.yml /usr/share/logstash/config/
> ADD sample.log /var/log/
> USER root
> 3. Add attached configuration file(s) (logstash.yml, pipelines.yml) inside the same directory created in step-2
> 4. Build logstash custom docker image
> # docker build -t <image-name> .   
> 5. Check docker images created in step-4.
> # docker images
> 6. Run Logstash docker custom image
> # docker run <image-id>
> 
> ```
