How can we check how long an index will be kept "alive", akin to checking the TTL in Cassandra?

  • Is there a query we can do in Kibana to check this?
  • Is there a way to get this via an automation script?

The TTL for Elastic is controlled by DataMiner. Elastic has no built-in TTL mechanism. These TTL values can be checked in C:\Skyline DataMiner\Database\DBMaintenanceDMS.xml. If the TTL is not in there, the default TTL will be used. You could also send the message GetTTLRequest
