This is using elasticsearch 2.4 . I added the action.destructive_requires_name: true to the yml and did a restart of the cluster. It seems we are still able to do delete using _all. Is there something I am missing?
It certainly doesn't look to me like it should work, looking at the code. If you find it works in a modern version of Elasticsearch I'd file an issue.
according to the docs it should, https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/2.4/indices-delete-index.html
I read that as "unless action.destructive_requires_name is set to true, deletes using _all or wildcards don't work".
so is there something i should be changing? sorry for the late response as I went on vacation.
