Hi,

When I try importing visualizations I get the error failed: Could not locate that index-pattern (id: netflow-\*).  
However the `netflow-*` index exists. Only the timelion visualization imported correctly.

Not all indexes from the old server are present on the new server.

I'm sorry I'm not sure I understand.

The index pattern in Kibana (under management) and the index (generated by logstash) are both named `netflow-*`.
