`index.blocks.read_only_allow_delete`::

|

Similar to `index.blocks.read_only`, but also allows deleting the index to

make more resources available. The <<disk-based-shard-allocation,disk-based shard

Deleting documents from an index - rather than deleting the index itself - can
|
||||
in fact increase the index size. When you are running out of disk space
|
||||
`index.blocks.read_only_allow_delete` is set to `true`, preventing you from
|
||||
consuming more disk space by deleting some documents. However, this block does
|
||||
permit you to delete the index itself since this does not require any extra
|
||||
disk space. When you delete an index the data is removed from disk almost
|
||||
immediately, freeing the space it consumes.
|
||||
|
||||
IMPORTANT: {es} adds the read-only-allow-delete index block automatically when
|
||||
disk utilisation exceeds the <<cluster-routing-flood-stage,flood-stage
|
||||
watermark>> and removes it again when disk utilisation is below the
|
||||
<<cluster-routing-watermark-high,high watermark>>. You should not apply this
|
||||
block yourself.
