I have found that my index was created without date math, so in provided\_name was full index name with old date.

Found solution to fix that in: [https://discuss.elastic.co/t/date-in-index-name-doesnt-change-on-rollover-on-the-next-day/226701](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/date-in-index-name-doesnt-change-on-rollover-on-the-next-day/226701)

Sorry for creating new topic, but it was looking like some other problem because index creation was logstash job, not sure how that could happened.
