Index management settings

You can use the following cluster settings to enable or disable index management features.

action.auto_create_index {ess-icon}

(Dynamic) Automatically create an index if it doesn’t already exist and apply any configured index templates. Defaults to true.

action.destructive_requires_name {ess-icon}

(Dynamic) When set to true, you must specify the index name to delete an index. It is not possible to delete all indices with _all or use wildcards. Defaults to true.

cluster.indices.close.enable {ess-icon}

(Dynamic) Enables closing of open indices in {es}. If false, you cannot close open indices. Defaults to true.

Note
 Closed indices still consume a significant amount of disk space.
reindex.remote.whitelist {ess-icon}

(Static) Specifies the hosts that can be reindexed from remotely. Expects a YAML array of host:port strings. Consists of a comma-delimited list of host:port entries. Defaults to ["*.io:*", "*.com:*"].

stack.templates.enabled
