How to configure props.conf and transforms.conf to filter events with LogLevel=INFO to nullQueue?

Hi guys.

I have a JBoss ServerLog that contains events with the following LogLevels:
INFO
WARNING
ERROR
SEVERE

I don't want to index events with LogLevel=INFO, how should my props.conf and transforms.conf look like?

Thanks

Then you can use this config:

props.conf:

[yourjbosssourcetype]
 TRANSFORMS-info=eliminate-info

transforms.conf

[eliminate-info]
 REGEX=\d*\sINFO\s\[
 DEST_KEY=queue
 FORMAT=nullQueue

Worked like a charm, with a minor update to the regex:

REGEX=\d*\sINFO\s+\[

Thanks you very much!

Is would be useful if you add some sample events, as is needed to define a regex to filter out those events

Sure, here you go. LogLevels in bold:
