How to disable index migration on mapping change

Elastic Stack Kibana
1

While upgrading my plugin (from: 5.6, to: 6.5), I have updated some mappings. This seems to be causing kibana to think it needs to migrate data, and causing the below error.

server    log   [21:06:03.159] [error][status][plugin:spaces@6.5.4] Status changed from yellow to red - mapping set to strict, dynamic introduction of [default] within [search] is not allowed
server   error  [21:06:03.163] [fatal][root] Error: mapping set to strict, dynamic introduction of [default] within [search] is not allowed

 FATAL  Error: mapping set to strict, dynamic introduction of [default] within [search] is not allowed

 server crashed  with status code 1

Is there an easy way to disable this migration check.

Have you migrated your 5.6 index to remove types by either using the Upgrade Assistant or manually?

Additionally, here is more information regarding how the automatic migrations work which were added in 6.5.

3

Updated manually.

Was this done prior to upgrading to 6.x? What does GET .kibana/_mapping look like?

5

yes, it was done prior to the upgrade

We have custom fields mapped on dashboards, visualizations, searches. There were also a few we let get dynamically mapped.

Now that dynamic is set to strict it fails.
