Hi

I have two mappings, mapping1 and mapping2... mapping1 goes to index1 and mapping2 to index2.

But mapping1 and mapping2 are same. Want to enable index in mapping1 and disable in mapping2.

How to do this?

Could you provide a full recreation script as described in [About the Elasticsearch category](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/about-the-elasticsearch-category/21). It will help to better understand what you are doing. Please, try to keep the example as simple as possible.

The index templates have the same order and one is using a suffix while the other one is using a prefix to match the indices to apply to. What is the name of your index that is causing the problem?

What is the name of the indices? When are you getting problems, when indexing or querying?
