Hello!
- Yes it will send new data as it’s coming as long as you have
from_beginning = false - It isn’t currently possible to store the offsets when restarting. Telegraf tail input plugin reading position - #4 by daniel
- You could probably create the success/fail writing logic by using the execd processor plugin. For example you could also configure telegraf to send data to stdin. If the value is sent to stdin, write the metric to X, if there is a an error write metric to Y.
