SUBSTITUTION VARIABLES

The following strings will subsitute within the config string:

  • "#LOGSTASH{host}" - resolves to the fully qualified hostname of the logstash on which the source is running (ie the master if non-distributed, each slave if distributed)
  • The standard Ikanow substitution (#IKANOW{xxx})
  • (not yet implemented - link to documentation once complete)
Warning

When using the "file" input (which only adminstrators can do), note that deleting the documents for the source does not appear to reset logstash's state for that file and therefore it does not re-ingest the data. To work around this, it is currently necessary to suspend the source, wait 5 minutes, and then re-enable it (which causes the logstash process to restart).
