Hi Israel,
Well, if you changed the timezone then the output will not work with Kibana so
this wouldn't be a terribly wise thing to do. However, I have written the code
to do it and updated the docs with the details - as well as fixing
capitalization and heading level issues. That code is now attached as
flume-1782-3.patch which needs to be added on to flume-1782-2.patch.

> The GUI for logs in ElasticSearch, Kibana, uses the utc date to determine
> which index to read for a search. The Flume ElasticSearch sink is using the
> local timezone to determine which index to write to. This means that events
> are being placed in the incorrect index and Kibana doesn't always find them.
