- This plugin does not support binary field values. `systemd` journal has the ability to assign fields with binary data. This plugin assumes all fields contain text values (text in this context includes numbers).
46
- This plugin does not support multiple values per field. `systemd` journal has the ability to accept the same field key, multiple times, with multiple values on a single log entry. This plugin will present the last value and ignore the others for this log entry.

+- This plugin will only read journal files located in `/var/log/journal` or `/run/log/journal`. `systemd-remote` has the ability to store log files anywhere (user configured). If these files are not located in `/var/log/journal` or `/run/log/journal`, the plugin will not find them.
