I have my elasticsearch running well , with current configuration :  
filebeat--\>logstash--\>elasticsearch--\>kibana. The filebeat is reading on cdr.log but I have previous data that has been archive by the system with the name e.g: cdr.log.2018-06-12. What is the method to upload this data to elasticsearch again ?

Its never been uploaded, but has been created by the system with those naming convention. What I am try to say is, I have data in file and I want it to upload it to ES.
