What indexes do you have in your ES cluster? You can use the [cat API](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/1.7/cat-indices.html) to list them. ---

Your index is named "logstash" but you're attempting to configure Kibana to use indexes matching "logstash-\*", and you have no such indexes. Adjust the index pattern in Kibana. ---

From the output of the \_cat API, it looks like you have no data in the log stash index. Is there any mapping present? ---
