Hi everyone, I am new to Elasticsearch. I received an email notification that says " Your cluster is near its limit for storage space.". Btw, I am using function beat to transport logs from AWS Cloudwatch to Kibana. I was wondering how to automatically delete month old indices every month? Is there a way to schedule the deletion for a specified period? Thanks in advance, appreciate your help.
Check out ILM.
PS, we aren't all guys

Hi @warkolm, is it possible to enable the ILM if the functionbeat is already deployed? Given the index template is already in place but without a policy yet. If yes, how? Thanks
https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/7.9/ilm-with-existing-indices.html goes into that.
