Include effective ES output config in the Beats diagnostics

Open faec opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

The Beats diagnostics should include the final effective config for the Elasticsearch output, after the presets have been applied.

With the addition of performance presets, the final effective configuration for the Elasticsearch output will look different than the raw component config set by Agent, since one preset flag can set/override several other flags in the output. It is still possible in theory to determine the effective configuration, since it is uniquely determined by the preset flag, but it could be overlooked during troubleshooting, and may be harder in the future since the preset values may change between versions. Including the final effective config gives an easy way to confirm the settings that the output was actually using.
