Hi **{ ELK WORLD }** ,  
I am using topbeat for monitoring server health. It successfully sends the data of a remote server  
and I'm also able to use dashboard on it.  
However it is observed that, It **doesn't show some of the field( mem.used\_p in our case )** for **sometime**. Like we were seeing **records in last minute** with **mem.user\_p criteria** and it is showing **no results** at all on queried.  
If I fire query for last 5 or 10 or \>=10 timespan, it display records. But doesn't only in last 1 min case.

**What is wrong here? We need this as we've configured watcher for 1 min to monitor memory usage.**

Please specify the Topbeat version and operating system and paste in some sample events demonstrating the problem. Use the query below to search Elasticsearch for all system events missing the `mem.used_p` field.

```auto
$ curl 'http://localhost:9200/topbeat-*/system/_search?pretty' -d '
{
  "query": {
    "bool": {
        "must_not": {
            "exists": {
                "field": "mem.used_p"
            }
        }
    }
  }
}'
{
  "took" : 6,
  "timed_out" : false,
  "_shards" : {
    "total" : 43,
    "successful" : 43,
    "failed" : 0
  },
  "hits" : {
    "total" : 0,
    "max_score" : null,
    "hits" : []
  }
}
