Upgraded ES/LS/K to latest

  "version": {

X-Pack license expired so I thought I had uninstalled it...

root@elkstack:/usr/share/elasticsearch# bin/elasticsearch-plugin remove x-pack
-> removing [x-pack]...
ERROR: plugin [x-pack] not found; run 'elasticsearch-plugin list' to get list of installed plugins
root@elkstack:/usr/share/elasticsearch#


root@elkstack:/usr/share/elasticsearch# bin/elasticsearch-plugin list
root@elkstack:/usr/share/elasticsearch#

But if I look in Dev Tools ---

qrSYXO4 localhost 127.0.0.1 ml.machine_memory 270376742912
qrSYXO4 localhost 127.0.0.1 xpack.installed   true
qrSYXO4 localhost 127.0.0.1 ml.max_open_jobs  20
qrSYXO4 localhost 127.0.0.1 ml.enabled        true

Is there no way to remove it? Thanks!

X-Pack license expired

The Basic license now never expires anymore.

Is there no way to remove it? Thanks!

No. If you install it from Download Elasticsearch | Elastic with the Elastic License this one comes with XPack features bundled.

If you want to install a pure OSS under Apache2 License, you need to download this one: Past Releases of Elastic Stack Software | Elastic

But it's great IMO to have XPack basic features available. See what is available at Subscriptions | Elastic Stack Products & Support | Elastic
