I am using Kibana master which was cloned from github at 2nd Oct, 2014.
I have a problem for using multiple index patterns on a dashboard.
In my dashboard, I use two index patterns such [abc-]-YYYY-MM-DD and [xyz-]-YYYY-MM-DD.
"abc" index has "@fields.val_int" field and "xyz" doesn't have.

I put a panel on the dashboard for displaying max "@fields.val_int" value histogram using "abc" indices.
In this case, Kibana tries to access "abc" indices to fetch "@fields.val_int" but also tries to access "xyz", and it causes a Bad request(400) error, like "FacetPhaseExecutionException: (value) field [@fields.val_int] not found", so The panel cannot display a histogram.

Does anyone have ideas about this?
Or is it possible to select index patterns on each panel?

To answer your question: Kibana expects the fields to be present in all indexes. You can not select a pattern per panel as you suggest. And development for Kibana 3 is stopped since they are now working on Kibana 4 which is a complete rewrite.

Elasticsearch would require the field to be available in every index, unfortunately this isn't something we can solve on the kibana side.

I just ran into this issue when trying to create a combined dashboard from multiple indexes. Will querying multiple indexes with different schemas be supported in Kibana 4?
