=== {ilm-cap} settings
|
|
|
|
These are the settings available for configuring Index Lifecycle Management
|
|
|
|
==== Cluster level settings
|
|
|
|
`xpack.ilm.enabled`::
|
|
Whether ILM is enabled or disabled, setting this to `false` disables any
|
|
ILM REST API endpoints and functionality. Defaults to `true`.
|
|
|
|
`indices.lifecycle.poll_interval`::
|
|
(<<time-units, time units>>) How often {ilm} checks for indices that meet policy
|
|
criteria. Defaults to `10m`.
|
|
|
|
`indices.lifecycle.history_index_enabled`::
|
|
Whether ILM's history index is enabled. If enabled, ILM will record the
|
|
history of actions taken as part of ILM policies to the `ilm-history-*`
|
|
indices. Defaults to `true`.
|
|
|
|
==== Index level settings
|
|
These index-level {ilm-init} settings are typically configured through index
|
|
templates. For more information, see <<ilm-gs-create-policy>>.
|
|
|
|
`index.lifecycle.name`::
|
|
The name of the policy to use to manage the index.
|
|
|
|
`index.lifecycle.rollover_alias`::
|
|
The index alias to update when the index rolls over. Specify when using a
|
|
policy that contains a rollover action. When the index rolls over, the alias is
|
|
updated to reflect that the index is no longer the write index. For more
|
|
information about rollover, see <<using-policies-rollover>>.
|
|
|
|
`index.lifecycle.parse_origination_date`::
|
|
When configured to `true` the origination date will be parsed from the index
|
|
name. The index format must match the pattern `^.*-{date_format}-\\d+`, where
|
|
the `date_format` is `yyyy.MM.dd` and the trailing digits are optional (an
|
|
index that was rolled over would normally match the full format eg.
|
|
`logs-2016.10.31-000002`). If the index name doesn't match the pattern
|
|
the index creation will fail.
|
|
|
|
`index.lifecycle.origination_date`::
|
|
The timestamp that will be used to calculate the index age for its phase
|
|
transitions. This allows the users to create an index containing old data and
|
|
use the original creation date of the old data to calculate the index age.
