Hi All,

I just upgraded from 0.90 to 1.1.1 Elastic Search.  
I am using logstash 1.4.2 as indexer.

In logstash indexer i am able to set @timestamp to custom data ...but when  
it gets stored in Elasticsearch its automatically converted to UTC.

Is there any way to keep the date in same way as it was inserted.

This worked in ES 0.90... Not sure what was changed.

Is there any property which will help me keeping the @timestamp field same  
as its being inserted.

Regards,  
Tarun.
