Index lifecycle error on metricbeat and heartbeat

Elastic Stack Beats
,
1

Hi Team,

In kibana under, in index management under indices its showing 79 indices have lifecycle errors and this no. is getting increased daily on elasticsearch v7.4

I am going through ILM docs, for beats ILM is enabled default and I have not done any modification so my concern is why its showing this error for out of box things?

from docs its not clear what needs to point metricbeat-7.4.0 to index metricbeat-7.4.0-2021.07.02.

metricbeat

Index lifecycle error

illegal_argument_exception: index.lifecycle.rollover_alias [metricbeat-7.4.0] does not point to index [metricbeat-7.4.0-2021.07.02]

heartbeat

llegal_argument_exception: index.lifecycle.rollover_alias [heartbeat-7.4.0] does not point to index [heartbeat-7.4.0-2021.07.01]

can't see this error for filebeat.

Thanks,
