Domain name in hostname is treated as separate field

Elastic Stack Kibana
1

Hi,

I'm in position of migrating from former ELK stack to the latest one
So I have 2 environments:
Redis -> Logstash(v1.4.2) -> ES(v1.4.2) -> Kibana(v3.1.0)
Redis -> Logstash(v1.5.2) -> ES(v1.7.1) -> Kibana(v4.0.2)

So I have both ES instances with the duplicate indexes. Now is experimenting with charts.
Problem:
When I create piechart with Term 'host.raw'(and with 'host' also) it shows all hosts plus domain name as separate field. Please note that it is showing properly in Kibana3.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks ahead
Sergey

It shouldn't be doing that on the .raw field.
It might help if you show us the mapping for the index.

Hi Mark,

Let me clarify my issue, narrowed today and what I found - it seems that any type .raw filed is not working. It just doesnt update pie chart when I select raw field at all. If I choose some raw field initially when creating pie chart, it shows _all message and seems sum up all documents.
Below is cut of index mapping(it's quite big so I paste only one type, rest are the same):

curl -XGET localhost:9200/logstash-2015.08.15/_mapping?pretty
{
"logstash-2015.08.15" : {
"mappings" : {
"syslog-oom" : {
"properties" : {
"@timestamp" : {
"type" : "date",
"format" : "dateOptionalTime"
},
"@version" : {
"type" : "string"
},
"host" : {
"type" : "string"
},
"info" : {
"type" : "string"
},
"message" : {
"type" : "string"
},
"path" : {
"type" : "string"
},
"process" : {
"type" : "string"
},
"source" : {
"type" : "string"
},
"tags" : {
"type" : "string"
},
"timestamp" : {
"type" : "string"
},
"type" : {
"type" : "string"
}
}
},

Thanks
Sergey

According to your mappings you don't have any .raw fields so it's not surprising that they don't work. Are you defining your own index template? What's in it?
