Data type | text |
file
The path to the log file from which the collector reads this log entry. Normally, this is a path in the /var/log
file system of a cluster node.
Data type | text |
offset
The offset value. Can represent bytes to the start of the log line in the file (zero- or one-based), or log line numbers (zero- or one-based), so long as the values are strictly monotonically increasing in the context of a single log file. The values are allowed to wrap, representing a new version of the log file (rotation).
