Dear ELK experts,

I got this problem frequently. My server has 128GB memory and I set the ES with 32GB in elasticsearch.yml.

I perform the query for 12 hours data and the indice size is around 100GB with 5 shards.  
Could you please advise any configuration required to set for kibana?

On the status page there is additional information, like the error for the plugin setting the red status. Could you provide that?
