Hi All
I am new to this elastic search, i have set up 1 node and below is the parent folder where the indices are getting stored.
/apps/jboss/elasticsearch/data
The query is , this filesystem is getting filled up very fast when ever there is a search in the elastic search.
When i try deleting the folders inside the indices , the index pattern i created gets gone from the console. Please help me to housekeep this filesystem without affecting the indexpattern.
Elasticsearch doesn't write anything to disk when you are searching. There must be something indexing documents into it.
This sounds like a very bad idea. Don't do anything yourself to the contents of a data folder. If you do, it may corrupt all your data. If you want to delete an index, use the delete index API.
