Hi  
I set up an ILM and it ran until 2020/11/01, ILM showed errors when it rotated the index and stopped creating new indexes, I tried to delete the previous index that had an error, I restarted the full ELK stack including the beats, I tried to use the

GET / my-index \* / \_ ilm / explain

but as I had removed the index with an error, it had no effect

I recreated the index in the kibana and still does not return data in the index

version elk stack = 7.0.1
