Documentation claims "index.translog.sync_interval" is dynamic, but it can not be set dynamically #32763
Comments
Pinging @elastic/es-core-infra |
A "dynamically updatable" setting has a strict definition - that nodes don't have to be restarted for them to take effect. |
In a production environment that's a problem, but thanks. I'll see how best to do this. Feel free to close. Documentation should be a bit more clear on the strictness |
I suspect it's not the only setting that requires a closed index so that's probably worth considering in any alteration to the docs. |

Thanks for the clarification, @ywelsch. I'm guessing we mean it more broadly now as "taking immediate effect"? I'll add an adoptme/low hanging fruit label here to add support for open indices. However, I worry that changing the docs now to say "only works with closed indices" will be left behind (like a stale code comment) when this issue adds support for open indices. The docs are non-committal at the moment but there's a pretty clear error message to make up for that. |
I would like to work on this. |
@jubyvictor are you working on this? |
Yes I'm. |
Mr. @markharwood, could I work here? |
There is already another attempt of this up, see #37382 |
Currently, we cannot update index setting index.translog.sync_interval if index is open, because it's not dynamic which can be updated for closed index only. Closes #32763
