=== Running Logstash as a Service on Debian or RPM
|
|
|
|
Logstash is not started automatically after installation. Starting and stopping Logstash depends on the
|
|
init system of the underlying operating system, which is now systemd.
|
|
|
|
As systemd is now the de-facto init system, here are some common operating systems and versions that
|
|
use it. This list is intended to be informative, not exhaustive.

|
| CentOS (and RHEL) 7 and newer | <<running-logstash-systemd,systemd>> |

==== Running Logstash by Using Systemd
|
|
|
|
Distributions like Debian Jessie, Ubuntu 15.10+, and many of the SUSE derivatives use systemd and the
|
|
`systemctl` command to start and stop services. Logstash places the systemd unit files in `/etc/systemd/system` for both deb and rpm. After installing the package, you can start up Logstash with:
|
|
|
|
[source,sh]
|
|
-------------------------------------------
|
|
sudo systemctl start logstash.service
|
|
