I have Multinode Cord, Master, Hot and Warm Elasticsearch Cluster, with 5 primary and 2 replica shards , but according to ILM when the Load is shifting from hot to warm, only one of the warm node is getting most of the data, other nodes storage reached only 7% while one node is getting 56% of data in the storage. Why So and How to handle this unbalanced shifting of data to the Warm as per the ILM policy.
