Unable to send data to LogStash

[deepujain]

We're trying to streamline access to our Elastic Search servers so we go through LogStash for some Beats. We also tried sending nvidiagpubeat to LogStash but we get these warnings that are errors since we have an empty index:

Any idea what's happening? Has this ever been tested or are we forced to send data directly to ES?
