Change time zone of output to ES index

[manthan_patel]

Hi,

I am outputting to Elasticsearch with date specific indices. My server time zone is in IST but problem I am facing is my Elasticsearch index changes as per UTC time zone.

How can i change timezone or ES index creation time as per IST

Please find my output which I have writter.

output {
if [componentId] in [0,10] {
file {
path => "/home/manthanb/logstash_output.txt"
}
}else{
elasticsearch {
hosts => ["10.10.3.44:9200"]
index => "logstash-%{componentId}-%{+YYYY.MM.dd}"
}
}
}

You'd have to get the date in local time into another field that you can reference in the index option's value. None of the stock filters do this so you'l have to resort to a ruby filter.

People are frequently asking about this and I don't understand why the exact time of index rollover matters.

I want exact time of roll over as i have some cleanup system based on index time.
