Modifying the Logstash Configuration File for an SSL Setup

This section includes guidelines for using Logstash with an OpenSearch installation that uses SSL signon.

1. Open LOGSTASH_HOME\pt\config\LogstashPipeLine.CONF for editing.

   See "Performing Additional Tasks," Reviewing the Logstash Configuration Files.

2. Add a line specifying the OpenSearch root certificate in the output section, and then save the file.

   See PeopleTools: Search Technology, "Configuring SSL between PeopleSoft and Search Engine."

   In this example, the cacert line is in bold font:

   input { 
     jmx {
       path => "C:\opensearch\pt\logstash-8.11.3\pt\jmxmonitor"
       polling_frequency => 5
       type => "jmx"
       nb_thread => 15
     }
    }
   output {
   opensearch {
   hosts => [" https://<OS_host>:<OS_port>"]
   index => "psft_hc_metrics"
   user => "osadmin"
   password => "encrypted_password"
   ecs_compatibility => disabled
   cacert => 'C:\opensearch\pt\opensearch-3.2.0\plugins\orcl-security-plugin\config\properties\cacert.cer'
   }
   }
