Kibana index does not contain a timestamp aka why does kibana search the kibana-int index?

LS,

I've been using an ELK-stack for development purposes for a few weeks now,
and my logs were filled with errors.

The errors it seemed were traceable to the fact that Kibana was(/is)
querying all the shards on the node for the @timestamp fields, which isn't
present in the kibana-int index (where Kibana stores it reports).

So when my users generate a report, Kibana searches in _all for the data,
which contains shards/indices not related to logstash... Is there any way I
can limit them to the indices/shards related to Logstash? I dislike errors
in my logging :wink:

Hi,
In the configuration setting of kibana which appears on top-right corner,
you can provide name of specific index instead of _all under index tab. And
under Timepicker tab, you can provide any date field of the logstash index
instaead of default @timestamp value. Note that date fields name should
not contain @ symbol, it must be like tweetCreatedAt not @tweetCreatedAt.

Regards,
Bharvi Dixit
