Hi!
My Nagios Log Server stop logging, but the logstash service is on.
If I restart the logstash service, the system come back to log.
Any idea?

Thanks!

Here are our logs (attach the logstash log):

Can you run the following commands and share the resulting /tmp/42881_1.zip file:

Attached!

Can you share the output of the following command executed from the CLI of any of your Nagios Log Server machines:

*Before made this post I upgraded the platform to v1.4.4 with the same results...

This definitely stands out:
Is this host behind a proxy of some sort? Can you also share the output of: It looks like localhost isn't resolving at times for some reason and that's probably why Logstash isn't able to find the Elasticsearch cluster.

Hi!

We found the fail!
We had the server (VM) with one core only.
We added several cores to the system and the server has begun to work fine.
Thanks for your time!

Glad you were able to find the solution! Are we okay closing the thread at this time?
