v1.0.1

  1. A few very minor grok changes.

  2. Also added files for /etc/profile.d and /etc/systemd/system/logstash.service.d which contain the environment variables and might be helpful as you get started.

v1.0.0

6 years ago

This is the initial release of sýnesis Lite for Syslog. It was developed and tested using Elastic Stack 6.1.1.

NOTE! The Logstash pipeline should work on versions 5.x of the Elastic Stack. However as the dashboards leverage the input controls visualization first introduced in Kibana 6.1.0, they will not be able to be imported completely into previous versions of Kibana.
