OK, so Elasticsearch is not rolling over the index in the way the lifecycle policy says to. That index also has a lifecycle error. I have to think those two are connected. I suggest you move this to the Elasticsearch forum.

Also, please do not post pictures of text, they are impossible to search, hard (and for some, impossible) to read. Just post the text of the complete error message.
