>From what I can tell, the data pruner isn't documented anywhere, so I'm curious if anybody is using this, and if so, how are you using it?
- https://github.com/apache/metron/blob/master/metron-platform/metron-data-management/README.md - https://github.com/apache/metron/blob/master/metron-platform/metron-data-management/src/main/java/org/apache/metron/dataloads/bulk/ElasticsearchDataPrunerRunner.java - https://github.com/apache/metron/blob/master/metron-platform/metron-data-management/src/main/java/org/apache/metron/dataloads/bulk/DataPruner.java It looks to me that it allows you to specify the start date and a number of days for lookback from the start date to purge along with a regex pattern to match the index name. It also does not look like it has any built-in scheduling semantics, so I assume this was a cron job. I think that about covers it. Anything I've missed? I'm adding a quick doc write-up to METRON-939 ( https://github.com/apache/metron/pull/840) for using Curator to prune indices from Elasticsearch. It is desirable to make sure I've covered existing use cases. Best, Mike
