Hi everyone,

I am a network specialist and my work consist of configuring switches and firewalls to allows communication between two endpoints. Now, I am playing with Elastic stack and I like it as it may help me to analyse logs in a more efficient way. I am able to gather my DHT11 sensors that gave me temperature and humidity.

...  
2019-12-23 17:40:02 Temp=18.0C Humidity=39.0%  
2019-12-23 17:41:02 Temp=18.0C Humidity=39.0%  
2019-12-23 17:42:01 Temp=18.0C Humidity=39.0%  
2019-12-23 17:43:01 Temp=18.0C Humidity=39.0%

and my logstash configuration is able to put those data in Elasticsearch but when Kibana shows the time 5 hours earlier. The picture show I search for "capture\_time:"2019-12-23 17:43:01" and Kinaba showed the search result: capture\_time: December 23rd 2019, 12:43:01.000

The Elasticsearch, Logstash and Kibana is on the same server with Estern time. How can I correct this issue?

input {

file {

path =\> "/usr/share/logstash/weather.txt"  
start\_position =\> "beginning"  
sincedb\_path =\> "/dev/null"  
}

}

filter {  
grok {  
match =\> { "message" =\> "%{TIMESTAMP\_ISO8601:capture\_time} Temp=%{NUMBER:temperature}C Humidity=%{NUMBER:humidity}%"}

}  
}  
output {  
elasticsearch {  
hosts =\> ["localhost:9200"]  
index =\> "dht11"  
document\_type =\> sensors  
}  
stdout { codec =\> rubydebug }  
}
