Hi Team,  
I am using basic license version 8.0.0 of ELK, which is setup using docker.  
We are using ILM for hot, warm and cold phase but after completing the hot phase it is waiting in warm phase with an action " **Waiting for all shards copies to be active**" current phase as migration can someone, please suggestion what we are missing and how to make sure this got to cold phase further, as this is not going further for cold and then deletion phase which concerns us. Thank you.

Do you have a cluster set up with Warm and Cold Nodes?  
With the correct attributes set up on those nodes?

Perhaps take a look at this...
