I've installed Filebeat and Metricbeat via YUM repo. And everything runs ok.
now, I have a problem to overwrite default index pattern name. no matter I use ./script/import_dashboards -i
or dashboards.index: customize-metric-* in XXXbeat.yml. it's always import the default pattern name like metricbeat-*
anybody else can help me out? than you very much

Hi @zaqweb ,
Could you share info about your setup (beats & elasticsearch version) + some logs of what you get when you run those commands?
Best regards

I removed some importing msg in the middle
I'm using -i portal-metric-* wanna try to overwrite default index pattern name metricbeat-*
but it's not take effect, the default pattern was still imported
Having the exact same issue. Using the -i
is actually not doing anything and the index pattern is still created as metricbeat-*

You can not change the index pattern in the dashboards by the importer, as these are pure json documents to be index in the .kibana
index. You have to adapt the dashboards: download, unpack and update the dashboards documents (e.g. use sed
to update all ocurences of metricbeat-*
to portal-metric-*
). Install updated dashboards using ./scripts/import_dashboards.
Already installed dashboards/searches can be update from within Kibana in Managed Objects
.
So why does the importar have the -i
flag which is supposed to do exactly that?

Oh, wasn't aware of -i
. The import is implemented here . Searching for cfg.Index
, I see search objects and index mapping being update by the script, but then the updated index pattern is still stored in metricbeat-*
. See this line: https://github.com/elastic/beats/blob/5.4/libbeat/dashboards/dashboards/importer.go#L306
Same happens in master.
Looks like a bug to me, but I'm not too familiar with the workarounds import_dashboards does apply. Can you open a bug report ?
I'm going to close this question and have submitted a bug here https://github.com/elastic/beats/issues/4345
