How to change number_of_shards and number_of_replica in elasticseatch template

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
4

I'm sorry, I should have tested the example before I posted it. I see now that it fails with parser error and there are two things that fail: Index template names can't contain dashes ("-") and I forgot a comma after the order field.

This should work better:

PUT _template/logstash_index_template
{
   "index_patterns" : ["sample_index*"],
   "order" : 1,
   "settings" : {
       "index.refresh_interval" : "10s",
       "number_of_shards" : "1",
       "number_of_replicas" : "0"
   }
}

No, I can overwrite the old index template with a new one, as long as I provide the same valid name :slight_smile:
