want to close my indices by using curator 
<https://github.com/apache/curator>. Curator allows you to delete or close 
indices by time, so if you say "close --older-than 30" it will close all 
indices older than 30 days. I use curator on 3 machines and it is working 
fine on 2 of them. 

When I call curator on the 3rd machine, nothing will happen, *no indices 
will be deleted* (the indices have been added to elasticsearch 90 days ago 
by using *logstash*. There is no exception, this is the output of curator:

2014-12-10 14:27:18,657 INFO      Job starting...
2014-12-10 14:27:18,663 INFO      Closing indices...
2014-12-10 14:27:18,670 INFO      Closed specified indices.
2014-12-10 14:27:18,670 INFO      Done in 0:00:00.021329.
 

I know that this can be caused by using the wrong date-format for the 
indices timestamps or if the indices actually have no timestamps defined. 
But I actually don't know how to check for this mistake. 

*How can I see if an index has a valid timestamp?*
