This playbook is intended to be run against a clean server (not clients) that will be used as a central logger. After the setup of the server, clients cat be instructed to redirect all logs to the central location.

Platform: Tested on Debian 7 x64 / CentOS 6.x x64 / Ubuntu Precise

Disclaimer: do not run this Playbook on a live production system!! Use a dedicated instance instead.

Prerequisites: At least 1GB Ram required. 2GB is better

Logging Logic: Clients => Rsyslog Tcp 514 => Logstash => Redis => Logstash => Elasticsearch => Kibana

1. Setup your target host in hosts

2. Add your custom domain in /etc/hosts on your local box. Example: 11.11.11.11 logger

pass : password for Nginx auth
