Hi again community!
I have just created a small cluster of VMs to keep with my experiments with new ELK5 and filebeat, and, to my surprise, I was unable to start EL until I removed shards/replica config from yml file...
By reading around, I readed that, those values have to be manually set per index.... and of course I can't believe this.
There should be a way to configure the thing, or a way to automate this.
If every day I get a new set of indexes, because logstash inserts data for services into indexes that do change their index name, every day, since it appends date at the end, there should be a way to control number of shards and replicas, otherwise, soon or later, indexes would start having default 1 replica unless we're manually intervening all the time... I'm sure I'm missing completelly the point, could you help me.
Thank you in advance.
Best regards!
