Hi ,  
I am new to curator use. I have my ES cluster running on AWS ec2 with 6.2 version and curator 5.4 . Also using x-pack . Full ELK stack is functional but curator seems not to be working . Can someone help

Below are the curator.yml and delete\_index.yml

```
[root@iacapps-es-node1 bin]# pwd
/usr/bin
[root@iacapps-es-node1 bin]# more delete_indices.yml
    ---
    # Remember, leave a key empty if there is no value. None will be a string,
    # not a Python "NoneType"
    #
    # Also remember that all examples have 'disable_action' set to True. If you
    # want to use this action as a template, be sure to set this to False after
    # copying it.
    actions:
      1:
        action: delete_indices
        description: >-
          Delete indices older than 1 day (based on index name), for logstash-
          prefixed indices. Ignore the error if the filter does not result in an
          actionable list of indices (ignore_empty_list) and exit cleanly.
        options:
          ignore_empty_list: True
          continue_if_exception: False
          disable_action: False
        filters:
        - filtertype: pattern
          kind: prefix
          value: logs-
          exclude:
        - filtertype: age
          source: name
          direction: older
          timestring: '%Y.%m.%d'
          unit: days
          unit_count: 1
          exclude:

```
