Good day

M index (filebeat-\*) in Elastic Cloud 7.4 is not rolling over. The index has a policy assigned and the policy is set to roll over at 5GB or 15 days.

When I run this query, the output below says 50GB or 30 days which is the default, but I updated the index policy. It looks like the changes I made to the policy is not being saved.

GET filebeat-7.4.0-2019.10.10-000001/\_ilm/explain  
{  
"indices" : {  
"filebeat-7.4.0-2019.10.10-000001" : {  
"index" : "filebeat-7.4.0-2019.10.10-000001",  
"managed" : true,  
"policy" : "filebeat-7.4.0",  
"lifecycle\_date\_millis" : 1570684441881,  
"age" : "14.97d",  
"phase" : "hot",  
"phase\_time\_millis" : 1570684442594,  
"action" : "rollover",  
"action\_time\_millis" : 1570685004809,  
"step" : "check-rollover-ready",  
"step\_time\_millis" : 1570685004809,  
"phase\_execution" : {  
"policy" : "filebeat-7.4.0",  
"phase\_definition" : {  
"min\_age" : "0ms",  
"actions" : {  
"rollover" : {  
"max\_size" : "50gb",  
"max\_age" : "30d"  
}  
}  
},  
"version" : 3,  
"modified\_date\_in\_millis" : 1570510452753  
}  
}  
}  
}

Not sure what else to do.
