Hi,

I just set up a new cluster, and I'm getting this error.

| Timestamp | Level | Type | Message | Component |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| November 19, 2021 10:32:57 AM | INFO | Server | policy [metricbeat] for index [metricbeat-7.15.2-2021.11.18-000001] on an error step due to a transient error, moving back to the failed step [check-rollover-ready] for execution. retry attempt [66] | o.e.x.i.IndexLifecycleRunner |
| November 19, 2021 10:22:57 AM | ERROR | Server | policy [metricbeat] for index [metricbeat-7.15.2-2021.11.18-000001] failed on step [{"phase":"hot","action":"rollover","name":"check-rollover-ready"}]. Moving to ERROR step | o.e.x.i.IndexLifecycleRunner |

All is the settings are standard (preconfigured). Also, I have loaded the pipelines, dashboards (etc) doing **metricbeat setup -e** and restarted the nodes.

Thanks 🙂
