There was a problem hiding this comment.
LGTM. But still requires @elastic/obs-infraobs-integrations review.

Please label as enhancement
Currently, there is no option for ignoring events older than X. This can be problematic, if there are hundreds of gigabytes of historical logfiles, that cannot be deleted, but shall not be ingested in Elastic.'
In more detail: We have apache as an internal core reverse-proxy and save the access logs on a fileshare, where elastic agent should ingest them. However some production environments have an uncompressed volume size of up to 227 GB, which currently should not all be ingested into Elastic, as there might be other retention periods as we currently have on our fileshare.
Therefore this option should prevent the ingestion of those old files, and should be configurable the same way, as it is already possible in the custom log integration.
