Hi.

I´ve implemented a ILM policy to move all my indexes older than 1 day to warm nodes. How can i check which indexes are in warm nodes? I´ve checked the ilm policy with **GET my\_index-\*/\_ilm/explain** and the results show "managed: true" and "phase: completed", but the warm nodes disk usage is still 0%.

Thanks in advance

Víctor

You need to have this defined via [node "tagging"](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/allocation-awareness.html) (aka allocation awareness). If/once that is done, [`_cat/nodeattrs`](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/cat-nodeattrs.html) will be able to tell you what's what.
