Hi, friends, I was configuring kibana with cross cluster search, but I can't create index pattern for that.  
I thought I had configured elasticsearch correctly so I can do the cross cluster search, like the two pic below

But when I try to create index pattern in kibana, it points that no data found

I didn't change my kibana configuration, so it connect the default es host--localhost:9200.  
This is my config file for the elasticsearch instance in the localhost(I only post the part I had changed):  
network.host: 127.0.0.1  
http.port: 9200  
search:  
remote:  
one:  
seeds: 10.1.5.168:9300  
two:  
seeds: 10.1.11.252:9300

Is there something I make wrong? Tks

🤣  
okay I resolved it myself, we should click the include system indices button, then they appear
