Hello ppl, I'm working with some indices (index1 and index2), once I've created index1 and configured etc, I create the second one, without erros or problems, exept when I try to create it on Kibana App, ![imagen](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/6/a/6a15e8a9d32b234c7475ef4caaafa045939a8724.png) as you can see, only have 2 indices, but not the second one I want. At the begining I though the problem was about kibana couldn't connect to elastic or something like that, but then I try to delete some test index and for my surprise they were removed from kibana app and I realised the connection works. I'm trying to figure out what's the problem, but I'm stuck here. Thank you. Joel ---

Hi, looks like you have two indices: hotelres and test. Your next step would be to type into the index pattern box the name of the index you would like to define. See more on this here: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/tutorial-define-index.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/tutorial-define-index.html) ---

Okey here are the index created: ![imagen](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/8/f/8f6fe8f5c7e28523bc826d5de9b12732dff8b3c5.png) ![imagen](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/9/e/9ef25d500fd66119aac6a929e4183d240de99524.png) But when I try to find it on Kibana nothing happens: ![imagen](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/3/8/38a0f7ee8ad9943b2f3c38a5c0cb7e0baaae5b4b.png) ---

Is that Kibana node bound to Elasticsearch running on 192.168.1.45:9200? Can you curl from the CLI for [http://192.168.1.45:9200/\_cat/indices](http://192.168.1.45:9200/_cat/indices) ---

Like this? (I'm quite useless with this im sorry about that) This is from Kibana PC ![imagen](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/c/f/cfd40b3f08fc8a66cdbb59fe11ccc8a2dbe9021c.png) ---

Not sure if there have been some issues with your implementation since the 9th (note red .monitoring index dated the 9th). If this is a test (non-prod) cluster then I would recommend you look to find out via the elasticsearch.log why you have red indices. Delete them if you so decide to. Put a single index `hotelavail` with 1 primary and 0 replica as you are running a single node cluster. Do make use of the elasticsearch.log and kibana logs to aid in troubleshooting where why and how. Have a good peruse of the following to get you started: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/getting-started.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/getting-started.html) [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/getting-started.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/getting-started.html) ---

Okey, I'll see if can find the error/mistake! Thank you for everything! Joel ---

I don't know if this was obvious or not, but I tried to do the same but put some data in, and it worked. So the proces should be: Create Index (hotelavail), mapping (X fields), put data in and Create it on Kibana. Anyway I'll read and re-read the "get you started link". Thank you JKhondhu for the help.
