Hi,  
The ES version I 'm using is 15.0 and found some issues are displayed  
here.  
Day 1 :I had ported the data and the indexing is completed . I had  
also optimized the database manually.  
Day 2 : We were working in the data and made some searches , the  
database was working fine .  
Suddenly the optimization tooks place without any intimation .On  
that time the database was closed and we weren't able to get DB  
access .  
Day 3 : After optimization process , the same database was working  
fine.  
Question 1 : Is there any method, that we need to configure to get  
the  
information when the optimization is going to start for that  
particular DB ?  
Question 2 : Is there any settings to schedule the time for this  
process to be happened ?  
Question 3 : Is there any predefined rule for optimization?  
Question 4 : Why the index are getting optimized very often?

Thanks
