Hi,  
I get the following error, I don't understand why this is happening. Why not load values?  
Logstash

```
input {
  beats {
    port => 5044
  }
}

output {
  elasticsearch {
    hosts => ["http://172.28.26.152:9200"]
	manage_template => false
    index => "%{[@metadata][beat]}-%{[@metadata][version]}-%{+YYYY.MM.dd}"
  }
}

```

System.module

```
- module: system
  period: 10s
  enabled: true
  processes: ['.*']
  
  metricsets:
    - cpu
    - memory
    - network
    - process
    - process_summary
    - diskio
    - core
    
  cpu.metrics: ["percentages"] # The other available options are normalized_percentages and ticks.
  core.metrics: ["percentages"] # The other available option is ticks.
  
  process.include_top_n:
    by_cpu: 5 # include top 5 processes by CPU
    by_memory: 5 # include top 5 processes by memory

- module: system
  period: 1m
  metricsets:
    - filesystem
    - fsstat

- module: system
  period: 10s
  metricsets:
    - uptime

```

# The Logstash hosts

```
output.logstash:
  hosts: ["172.28.26.152:5044"]

```

Did you load the index template for metricbeat?

I was referring to the elasticsearch index template: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/indices-templates.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/indices-templates.html) If you send data to Elasticsearch from Metricbeat, it loads it automatically, if you send it through Logstash, you need to load it manually.

I think this problem is very hard. I use approach Beat ---\> Logstash --\> Elastic --\> Kibana so can you share example for metricbeat ?

Hi Ruflin  
I solved the problem. As you say load metricbeat field manually. My solution approach;

```
setup.template.name: "metricbeat"
setup.template.fields: "fields.yml"
setup.template.overwrite: false

```

Thank you for response  
Best Regards
