Hello,

I've just added "highstorage" nodes to my Elastic Cloud deployment to store "warm" indexes. So, I've modified the ILM associated with my indexes to move indexes getting into warm phase to these new nodes. However, I guess this won't get into action until an index transitions from hot to warm occurs, since nothing has been moved so far (just reconfigured it all few hours ago).

How can I force my already "warm" indexes to move to the new "warm" nodes?

Best regards,  
Xavier Romero
