freenas/elk repository overview

⁠elk-docker

Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana (ELK) Docker image, based on the Docker image of Sébastien Pujadas⁠.

⁠Parameters

• /var/lib/elasticsearch Elasticsearch data.
• /etc/logstash/conf.d Logstash config folder.

⁠Important

As explained in https://github.com/spujadas/elk-docker/issues/92#issuecomment-263152557⁠ please make sure the VM running this container is configured correctly.

# open a console into the VM that will be running the elk docker container
sudo vi /var/lib/boot2docker/bootlocal.sh
# Add this line into /var/lib/boot2docker/bootlocal.sh
sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=262144
sudo chmod +x /var/lib/boot2docker/bootlocal.sh

For some reason /var/lib/boot2docker is not being preserved after reboot. Further research needed.
