Hey guys I happened to check /var/log/logstash and noticed that I have thousands of errors that revolve around charset errors:

Code: Select all

{:timestamp=>"2020-06-04T11:49:17.831000-0400", :message=>"Received an event that has a different character encoding than you configured.", :text=>"0-\\u0002\\u0001\\u0000\\u0004\\u0006public\\xA4 \\u0006\\n+\\u0006\\u0001\\u0004\\u0001\\x81h\\t\\u0004\\n@\\u0004\\n\\u0006\\xEB7\\u0002\\u0001\\u0004\\u0002\\u0001\\u0000C\\u0004\\fv\\x8B\\xFF0\\u0000", :expected_charset=>"UTF-8", :level=>:warn}

I think these are being sent as snmptraps from my HP ILO interfaces, but I dont know what I need to do to get rid of these errors.
