- Inode reuse causes Filebeat to skip lines
- Log rotation results in lost or duplicate events
- Open file handlers cause issues with Windows file rotation
- Filebeat is using too much CPU
- Dashboard in Kibana is breaking up data fields incorrectly
- Fields are not indexed or usable in Kibana visualizations
- Filebeat isn’t shipping the last line of a file
- Filebeat keeps open file handlers of deleted files for a long time
- Filebeat uses too much bandwidth
- Error loading config file
- Found unexpected or unknown characters
- Logstash connection doesn’t work
- Publishing to Logstash fails with "connection reset by peer" message
- @metadata is missing in Logstash
- Not sure whether to use Logstash or Beats
- SSL client fails to connect to Logstash
- Monitoring UI shows fewer Beats than expected

Oracle module
editOracle module
editThis is a module for ingesting Audit Trail logs from Oracle Databases.
The module expects an *.aud audit file that is generated from Oracle Databases by default. If this has been disabled then please see the Oracle Database Audit Trail Documentation.
Read the quick start to learn how to configure and run modules.
Compatibility
editThis module has been tested with Oracle Database 19c, and should work for 18c as well though it has not been tested.
Configure the module
editYou can further refine the behavior of the oracle
module by specifying
variable settings in the
modules.d/oracle.yml
file, or overriding settings at the command line.
You must enable at least one fileset in the module. Filesets are disabled by default.
Variable settings
editEach fileset has separate variable settings for configuring the behavior of the
module. If you don’t specify variable settings, the oracle
module uses
the defaults.
For advanced use cases, you can also override input settings. See Override input settings.
When you specify a setting at the command line, remember to prefix the
setting with the module name, for example, oracle.database_audit.var.paths
instead of database_audit.var.paths
.
database_audit
fileset settings
editExample config:
- module: oracle database_audit: var.input: file var.paths: /home/user/oracleauditlogs/*/*.aud
-
var.paths
-
An array of glob-based paths that specify where to look for the log files. All
patterns supported by Go Glob
are also supported here. For example, you can use wildcards to fetch all files
from a predefined level of subdirectories:
/path/to/log/*/*.log
. This fetches all.log
files from the subfolders of/path/to/log
. It does not fetch log files from the/path/to/log
folder itself. If this setting is left empty, Filebeat will choose log paths based on your operating system. -
var.tags
-
A list of tags to include in events. Including
forwarded
indicates that the events did not originate on this host and causeshost.name
to not be added to events. Defaults to[oracle-database-audit]
.
Oracle Database fields
editOracle Database fields are mapped to the current ECS Fields:
Oracle Fields | ECS Fields | |
---|---|---|
privilege |
host.user.roles |
|
client_user |
client.user.name |
|
userhost |
client.ip/domain |
|
database_user |
server.user.name |
Fields
editFor a description of each field in the module, see the exported fields section.
