Invoking logstash

This is just a rough example showing how to treat the CLASSPATH and plugin-path of logstash you shouldn't use this exact command, but rather learn the important key parts from it

java -Xmx400M -server \
   -cp scribe_server.jar:logstash-1.2.1-flatjar.jar \
   logstash.runner agent \
   -p /where/did/i/put/this/downloaded/plugin?  \
   -f logstash.conf \
   -vv
