Have I already try to look at this kind of question in the community?  
I would say yes. Most of them got red status cluster, but in my case

- There are 3 nodes **HOT WARM COLD respectively from node 1 to node 3**

- I add data to ELK stack, but **my shard is located on WARM/COLD instead of HOT**. I have no idea about this.

- shard allocation NOT ALLOW because my shard is in WARM node and it tries to reallocate from HOT to WARM **(allocation in the same node)**  
\*Note ''' "can\_remain\_on\_current\_node": "no" ''' I see this option in [Cluster api](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/7.4/cluster-allocation-explain.html) Is it possible to set because I didn't see this field in my result? or Is it already deprecated?

What does your policy look like?

each phrase will have something like this and I set it according to the phrase. Ex. in warm phrase box\_typr will be warm.
