ISO8601 uses a [CasualISO8601Parser](https://github.com/logstash-plugins/logstash-filter-date/blob/815a4dc7a6d718feefe6eb9e67dc5234495f298d/src/main/java/org/logstash/filters/parser/CasualISO8601Parser.java#L34) and that defers to joda for what ISO8601 means. [joda](https://github.com/JodaOrg/joda-time/blob/e37246fb936b2c242812235dff53c749e18ec200/src/main/java/org/joda/time/format/ISODateTimeFormat.java#L488) does not agree that ' 03-MAR-21 03:46:10" is ISO8601 compliant.

Just change your date filter to have the actual format

```
date { match => ["timestamp", "dd-MMM-yy HH:mm:ss"] }
```
