Hello,

Is there a way to move indices that have passed the warm phase to a warm node?  
none was selected in the ILM screen, and currently they are all on the 'hot node"

I selected the correct node in the ILM page, but I don't see they are moving.  
thank you

sure. thanks

the dropdown of "select a node..." was on default,  
and the default apparently is the hot nodes (not sure where to change it in the cloud)

find a way to move them

```
PUT my-index/_settings
{
  "index.routing.allocation.require.data": "warm"
 
}

```

btw, is there a way to check what is the default allocation node for warm? (elastic cloud)
