Filebeat reads old files sometimes
2019 Community Moderator Electiongrep a file, but show several surrounding lines?How to symlink a file in Linux?How do I change permissions for a folder and all of its subfolders and files in one step in Linux?How can I recursively find all files in current and subfolders based on wildcard matching?How do I find all files containing specific text on Linux?Filebeat on Windows 2012 R2FIlebeat-Redis-Logstash : Filebeat fast and Logstah slow, logstash threading?Filebeat message ordering during aggressive log rotationFilebeat timestamp change for application logsHow to prevent old log appending from filebeat to logstash?
I have a folder with log files from 2016-present and setup filebeat with "ignore_older: 48h". All the files get rotated so that "log" is always the new one, "log.1" is the next etc.
Logs are on linux NFS partition mounted on the logstash host.
I expect filebeat to get only log files that where changed in the last 24h and ignore the older ones.
The above happens except from time to time it also gets older files in no specific order.
I ran "stat" command on one of the older file from 2018 and i see the following:
Access: 2019-03-02 03:15:32.254460960 +0000
Modify: 2018-09-06 13:12:00.331460890 +0000
Change: 2019-02-28 03:34:33.946462475 +0000
I run filebeat version 6.4.2
Is this data confusing Logstash? What is it actually looking at when checking if a file has changed. How can i stop it from taking older files.
UPDATE:
My filebeat configuration looks like this:
- type: log
enabled: true
paths:
- /path/to/my/log/file/log*
fields:
logname: "log.name"
include_lines: ["SOME_TEXT"]
ignore_older: 48h
Logs are in CSV format.
