Hi All,

On our production environment, my colleague was deleting the old logs using console by using command DELETE / but instead of last month, he delete this month's log.  
Is there any way to recover the deleted index? fyi: we dont have any snapshot or backup.  
Any help is highly appreciated! Thanks!
