Separation of logs

Post by vravikumar »

Hi

We are currently evaluating NLS Trial Version.

We would like to know is there any way to define separate storage/index for logs coming from different sources.

Say, i have 2 log sources like A and B. Can i define the following for them?

1) Their logs storage location, i.e. separate locations for A and B
2) Indexes pertaining to their logs, i.e separate indexes for A and B.
3) Alert, Search etc., (engines) running separately on that set of logs.

Kindly let me know whether such kind of mechanism exists or not?

BR,
Ravi.

Based on my research you can define multiple data/log paths but there is not a way to tell elastic to only use a specific data/log path for a given node.

I don't think it's currently possible.
