The Elasticsearch index name. This setting overwrites the index name defined
in the dashboards and index pattern. Example: `"testbeat-*"`

NOTE: Changing this setting while trying to load dashboards into Elasticsearch 5.x using {beatname_uc} 6.x will not work.

Perhaps we should directly say:

NOTE: This setting only works for Kibana 6.0 and newer.

I think the "using {beatname_uc} 6.x will not work" is unnecessary since this statement will only be included in the documentation for the versions it affects.
