Elastic System watch continous alerts with Firing Status

Hello Team ,

We are using ELK enterprise license 7.17 with 5 data node and 3 master nodes.
We are getting continous alerts from one of the watcher (system watch)
Could someone help to resolve this or how can we deactivate the watcher .


where we cannot deactivate / edit any setting.

The execution status is Log state not found in Firing status .

Attached the output of the API
GET _watcher/watch/8KRfo_1OSs2ooNEJgb-bsA_elasticsearch_cluster_status
