Also it could be related elastic has read_only_allow_delete flag set. You need set this flag to null running this command. curl -XPUT -H "Content-Type: application/json" http://localhost:9200/_all/_settings -d '{"index.blocks.read_only_allow_delete": null}'

To create an index pattern, you must have at least one document on your index otherwise no suggestion will be appear. From your comment I came to know that you've created 4 times the index but it is not showing on your visualization part. Let see why it is happening?

When you create an index with any mapping using below command. For Example : 

PUT /customer

It will not be visible on the create index pattern part because you just created the index without any documents on it but if you try the below command at first or after index creation you can see the index name suggestion while creating the index pattern

PUT /customer/cu/1?pretty
{
  "name": "John Doe"
}

See my attached image here. So to see the index name on your Management menu create at least on document inside your index.
