Currently I am getting errors like the following quite often:

> This cluster had issues returning data and results might be incomplete.
> 
> error fetching [journald.custom.syslog\_timestamp]: Field [journald.custom.syslog\_timestamp] of type [flattened] doesn't support formats.

I am not sure what causes them or what to look for. Are these errors in the index? Or in fields that Kibana wants to display, but can't?
