Hello,  
I encountered a filesystem full on one of my nodes that caused a cluster stop.

I solved the disk space problem by deleting a too big metricbeat index and restarted the cluster.  
I used the following method (as usual)

```auto
"read_only_allow_delete" : "false"

```

to allow the existing indexes to write new data.  
But I don't see any of the filebeat indexes to write new data...

What should I check or do in order to solve this ?

Indexes structure :  
Filebeat logs ==\> index "log\_prd-000xx" / index "log\_hp-000xx" ==\> KO  
Filebeat stats ==\> index "stat\_prd-000xx" / index "stat\_hp-000xx" ==\> KO  
Metricbeat ==\> index "metricbeat-7.2" ==\> OK

How did you delete the index?
