Keep a copy of the original log

Keep a copy of the original log

When you deploy or upgrade the Logging agent, you can configure the logs-values.yaml file to set keepParsedLog to true to retain a copy of the original log field after it has been successfully processed by the Kubernetes plug-in and the parser extracts the fields successfully.

The default is false.

Valid values are: true, false

Enabling this will result in duplicate log data, which may increase storage usage.

Example configuration:

keepParsedLog: false

After you modify the logs-values.yaml, you can Upgrade the agent or continue modifying the file before applying all the changes.
