.signals_log indices history

Search Guard

Signals_log index uses _index_template signals_log_template , can we configure it ? I would like to add lifecycle policy to it, which I can, but every deployment will change it back to default. I could make a secondary request after each sgctl deployment but maybe there is another way ?

Thanks.

Hi @peter82,

What version of Search Guard are you using?
Could you please elaborate on “sgctl deployment” (the upload of SG configuration)?

Thanks,

1.2.0 SG FLX, yes by sgctl deployment I meant deploy all SG configuration with sgctl tool to cluster where /sgconfig/ is path to all configs.

elasticsearch/kibana version 8.6.2

for instance:

./sgctl.sh update-config ./sgconfig/

.

actually you can solve this with another template with higher priority.

@peter82 thanks for sharing the Solution, I’ve been looking into this in my lab; if there are any alternative solutions (including the original template), I’ll let you know.

Thanks,
Mantas
