Description

Upgraded above cluster from Ambari 2.6.2 to Ambari 2.7.0 and logsearch also
from 2.6.2 to 2.7.0.0

In ambari 2.6.2 we had created file "kafka-output.json" under "/usr/lib
/ambari-logsearch-logfeeder/conf" so that logsearch data is pushed to kafka
topic.

Looks like Ambari upgrade renames the conf dir to "conf-old" as below and due
to which kafka-output.json file in missing from the new config dir. This is
causing logfeeder start failure.
