Hello Jochen,

What I see is that my current indice is graylog2_60
and my oldest_one is graylog2_6 which is reopened and I don't understand 
why it is not deleted.

My rotation config:

# Graylog will use multiple indices to store documents in. You can 
configured the strategy it uses to determine
# when to rotate the currently active write index.
# It supports multiple rotation strategies:
#   - "count" of messages per index, use elasticsearch_max_docs_per_index 
below to configure
#   - "size" per index, use elasticsearch_max_size_per_index below to 
configure
# valid values are "count", "size" and "time", default is "count"
rotation_strategy = count

# (Approximate) maximum number of documents in an Elasticsearch index 
before a new index
# is being created, also see no_retention and 
elasticsearch_max_number_of_indices.
# Configure this if you used 'rotation_strategy = count' above.
elasticsearch_max_docs_per_index = 20000000

# (Approximate) maximum size in bytes per Elasticsearch index on disk 
before a new index is being created, also see
# no_retention and elasticsearch_max_number_of_indices. Default is 1GB.
# Configure this if you used 'rotation_strategy = size' above.
#elasticsearch_max_size_per_index = 1073741824

# (Approximate) maximum time before a new Elasticsearch index is being 
created, also see
# no_retention and elasticsearch_max_number_of_indices. Default is 1 day.
# Configure this if you used 'rotation_strategy = time' above.
# Please note that this rotation period does not look at the time specified 
in the received messages, but is
# using the real clock value to decide when to rotate the index!
# Specify the time using a duration and a suffix indicating which unit you 
want:
#  1w  = 1 week
#  1d  = 1 day
#  12h = 12 hours
# Permitted suffixes are: d for day, h for hour, m for minute, s for second.
#elasticsearch_max_time_per_index = 1d


My retention config:

# Disable message retention on this node, i. e. disable Elasticsearch index 
rotation.
#no_retention = false

# How many indices do you want to keep?
elasticsearch_max_number_of_indices = 20

# Decide what happens with the oldest indices when the maximum number of 
indices is reached.
# The following strategies are availble:
#   - delete # Deletes the index completely (Default)
#   - close # Closes the index and hides it from the system. Can be 
re-opened later.
retention_strategy = delete



Regards.
