Hello.  
Currently, elasticsearch distributed as bosh release is in operation.

As you can see  
I have a cluster\_monitor and maintenance vm inside logsearch Deployment.

```auto
Deployment 'logsearch'

Instance VM Type Active Process State AZ IPs VM CID                            
cluster_monitor/76a8f7e3-        
maintenance/951c3d02-  

```

I knew that I was managing indices through the contents defined in the curator's actions.yml in cluster\_monitor, but even if the retention period was changed to 90 days, the discover graph of kibana was shown every 30 days.

As it turned out, it was being managed as defined in curator's actions.yml in maintenance.

I'm curious how curator works in this case.

Are both curators working?  
Or maybe only one curator is working and the other is ignored  
If so, what are the criteria or order in which it works?

please answer about my question!
