Elasticsearch stop collection after high disk watermark.  
After cleanup the disk, I want to restart collection.

Some years ago on version 6.8.23-1 I use:  
curl -X PUT "[http://127.0.0.1:9200/settings?pretty](http://127.0.0.1:9200/settings?pretty)" -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"index": {"blocks": {"read\_only\_allow\_delete": "false"}}}' { "acknowledged" : true, "shards\_acknowledged" : true, "index” : “settings" }

But now on version 7.10.2 this does work.

How can I restart the collection in version 7.10.2?

Try it on all indices like this

```auto

curl -X PUT "localhost:9200/*/_settings?pretty" -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d'
{
  "index.blocks.read_only_allow_delete": null
}
'

```

The answer of the command is:  
{  
"acknowledged" : true  
}

I will check the result.  
Elasticsearch collects again.  
Thanks.
