Writing to a fixed index

Open LukasdeBoer opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

Elastic.co ILM currently requires the writer to write to a fixed alias index, and let Elastic Index Lifecycle Management handle which actual index is written to. Does this repository support that?

I was wondering to configure an ilm policy with alias also but as it seems there is no parameter allowing that, am I right?

Was a while ago, and we don't use this anymore, but I think I locally changed the index template and removed the date_index_name processor. That fixed it for us.
