> Hello! The elastic can not create an index graylog\_58. How can I understand why the status of elastic is red? I have everything in 1 place and graylog and elastic. Where can I see the logs and find out the reason? index is open but red. Could this be due to the fact that the disk is 92% busy? [image]

Now I’m know I’m the best. My previous answer.

Read answers, and make the suggestions.
