I am using sdjournal indirectly with the filebeat journald input, and was wondering if reading from a non-default journald namespace is supported directly. I know that I can point filebeat to the namespace's systemd.journal file residing in /var/lib/journal/machine-id.namespace, but this requires knowledge of the machine-id for each individual server.
I solved the problem for our system by symlinking the machine-id.namespace directory to a machine-independent path, but this still feels hacked together.

Looking at the code it doesn't seem like, so I just wanted to confirm.

Thanks a lot and all the best!
