Do you only have 1 node? If so this is why... If not disregard... and we can look at other reasons

If so the Yellow means that the index does not have anywhere to put the replica, you can set the replicas to 0 and it will go green.. Most indices default to 1 replica so most your indices will be yellow on a single node.

to be clear there is no harm leaving it how it is...

what does this show under the settings

GET /delega

   "settings" : {
      "index" : {
...
        "number_of_shards" : "1",
        "number_of_replicas" : "1", <!--- Set to 0

PUT /delega/
{
  "settings": {
    "number_of_replicas": 0
  }
}

Then it should go green.... OR there is no harm leaving it how it is...

PUT/delega give a bad request 400 like this:

{
  "error" : {
    "root_cause" : [
      {
        "type" : "resource_already_exists_exception",
        "reason" : "index [vanne/gOsAo5RsTZqtrqpWv5U1Zw] already exists",
        "index_uuid" : "gOsAo5RsTZqtrqpWv5U1Zw",
        "index" : "delega"
      }
    ],
    "type" : "resource_already_exists_exception",
    "reason" : "index [vanne/gOsAo5RsTZqtrqpWv5U1Zw] already exists",
    "index_uuid" : "gOsAo5RsTZqtrqpWv5U1Zw",
    "index" : "delega"
  },
  "status" : 400
}
