I have elasticsearch 2.4 and I have a lot of index that every day are created like this:

test-app-yyyy.MM.dd  
test-poc-yyyy.MM.dd  
test-serv-yyyy.MM.dd

I have a template customized for all "test-\*" but now I would like to specify only for test-app-yyyy.MM.dd a different template to change replica and shards.

Can I create a new template more specific "test-app-\*" for my new indexes?
