Question & Answer
Question
I removed my remote Logstash directory. When I tried to reinstall Logstash in the same directory using IBM Log Analysis remote_install_tool, the message is:
Logstash component is already registered with Log Analysis..
How do I reinstall Logstash to the same directory?
Cause
When you removed your Logstash directory, your Logstash was still registered with Log Analysis remote_install_tool, hence you need to clean the registry before you can reinstall in the same directory again.
Answer
You can check the registry in Log Analysis server by running:
<LA_HOME>/LogAnalysis/remote_install_tool/manage_components.sh -o list -a
And you can clean the registry by running:
<LA_HOME>/LogAnalysis/remote_install_tool/manage_components.sh -o unregister -c LOGSTASH
You can then select in the registry the remote Logstash that you want to remove and remove it, before attempting to reinstall again.
