== Start and stop {ilm}
|
|
|
|
All indices that are managed by ILM will continue to execute
|
|
their policies. There may be times when this is not desired on certain
|
|
indices, or maybe even all the indices in a cluster. For example,
|
|
maybe there are scheduled maintenance windows when cluster topology
|
|
changes are desired that may impact running ILM actions. For this reason,
|
|
ILM has two ways to disable operations.
|
|
|
|
When stopping ILM, snapshot lifecycle management operations are also stopped,
|
|
this means that no scheduled snapshots are created (currently ongoing snapshots
|
|
are unaffected).
|
|
|
|
Normally, ILM will be running by default.
|
|
To see the current operating status of ILM, use the <<ilm-get-status,Get Status API>>
|
|
to see the current state of ILM.

=== Stopping ILM=
|
|
|
|
The ILM service can be paused such that no further steps will be executed
|
|
using the <<ilm-stop,Stop API>>.
|
|
|
|
[source,js]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
POST _ilm/stop
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
// CONSOLE
|
|
// TEST[continued]
|
|
|
|
When stopped, all further policy actions will be halted. This will
|
|
be reflected in the Status API
|

|

|
|
The ILM service will then, asynchronously, run all policies to a point
|
|
where it is safe to stop. After ILM verifies that it is safe, it will
|
|
move to the `STOPPED` mode.
