zabbix store data in Elasticsearch with partition index name

[Rossonero224]

Hi,
I'm using zabbix 3.4 with elasticsearch as backend. Everything works great and the performance is very good.
But after some times, I see that the index size in elasticsearch increases a lot. I read that housekeeper does not work with data in Elasticsearch.

Elasticsearch has a great feature that allow the index can be partition by day. For ex : uint index, can be partitioned to : unit-[YYYY-MM-DD] and old data can be backup and purged easily from ES.

So, I wonder if zabbix can support to use partition index name in elasticsearch?

just updated from 3.4 to 4.0.9 alpha and followed this guide : https://www.zabbix.com/documentation...c_search_setup to add support for index partition by day in elasticsearch.

Everything seems fine
