Alias error , with rollover next step index-0002

[artax_sb]

Hi,

I have a lifecycle policy with template/alias/index with 5gb and 3 days

indextest-00001

good works when the rollover step, close de indextest-00001 and creates a new indextest-00002 but the new index dont write any info, doesnt have any documents , is empty and 450b

i put the alias in indextest-0001 with is_write true , dont show any errors.

i dont know what is the error

Thank you in advance

        "alias": "3days5gbalias",
        "is_write_index": true
      }
    }
  ]
