All of a sudden in my metricbeat dashboard, i cannot view certain elements. It is poping the following error,

`Could not locate that index-pattern (id: metricbeat*), [click here to re-create it](#/management/kibana/index?id=metricbeat%252A&name=)`

When i clicked on the image, no changes been made. I cannot figure out what went wrong. Can somebody help me?

Thanks in advance!

Cheers,  
Kanthi.

Never mind. I tried removing all indexes and loaded again along with the dashboards. It works now 😛
