Hi,

in my cluster the index lifecycle management (ILM) has stopped working,  
In detail there is only the cancellation that has not been done for a few days and this error appeared in the logs:  
`[2022-02-18T15: 36: 31,581] [WARN] [o.e.x.c.s.SchedulerEngine] [NODE] listener failed while handling triggered event [ilm]`

Here are my configurations:  
Version 6.8.22

ILM:

            "set_priority" : {
              "priority" : 100
            }
          }
        },
        "delete" : {
          "min_age" : "14d",
          "actions" : {
            "delete" : { }

        }
      }
    }
