There is always exactly one index to which new messages are written until the configured rotation criterion (number of documents, index size, or index age) has been met.

Note By default, the system checks for indexes that match an ILM policy at 10-minute intervals. You can configure the indices. lifecycle. poll_interval parameter to change the check interval.
