Beats version 8.18.2
editKnown Issues
editFilebeat
-
The Filestream input does not enforce the restrictions documented for the
clean_inactive
option, thus allowing configurations that can lead to data re-ingestion issues. -
When
clean_inactive: 0
, Filestream cleans the state of all files on start up, effectively re-ingesting all files on restart. Setclean_inactive: -1
to disable this behavior.
