*Management* is home to UIs for managing all things Elastic Stack—
|
|
indices, clusters, licenses, UI settings, index patterns, spaces, and more.

|
|
|
a| <<working-remote-clusters, *Cross-Cluster Replication*>>
|
|
|
|
Replicate indices on a remote cluster and copy them to a follower index on a local cluster.
|
|
This is important for
|
|
disaster recovery. It also keeps data local for faster queries.
|
|
|
|
| <<index-lifecycle-policies, *Index Lifecycle Policies*>>
|
|
|
|
Create a policy for defining the lifecycle of an index as it ages
|
|
through the hot, warm, cold, and delete phases.
|
|
Such policies help you control operation costs
|
|
because you can put data in different resource tiers.
|
|
|
|
a| <<managing-indices, *Index Management*>>
|
|
|
|
View index settings, mappings, and statistics and perform operations, such as refreshing,
|
|
flushing, and clearing the cache. Practicing good index management ensures
|
|
that your data is stored cost effectively.
|
|
|
|
| <<managing-licenses, *License Management*>>
|
|
|
|
View the status of your license, start a trial, or install a new license. For
|
|
the full list of features that are included in your license,
|
|
see the https://www.elastic.co/subscriptions[subscription page].
|
|
|
|
| <<working-remote-clusters, *Remote Clusters*>>
|
|
|
|
Manage your remote clusters for use with cross-cluster search and cross-cluster replication.
|
|
You can add and remove remote clusters, and check their connectivity.
|
|
|
|
| <<data-rollups, *Rollup Jobs*>>
|
|
|
|
Create a job that periodically aggregates data from one or more indices, and then
|
|
rolls it into a new, compact index. Rollup indices are a good way to store months or
|
|
years of historical data in combination with your raw data.
|
|
|
|
| <<snapshot-repositories, *Snapshot and Restore*>>
|
|
|
|
Define a policy that creates, schedules, and automatically deletes snapshots to ensure that you
|
|
have backups of your cluster in case something goes wrong.
|
|
|
|
| {ref}/transforms.html[*Transforms*]
|
|
|
|
Use transforms to pivot existing {es} indices into summarized or entity-centric indices.
|
|
|
|
| <<upgrade-assistant, *Upgrade Assistant*>>
|
|
|
|
Identify the issues that you need to address before upgrading to the
|
|
next major version of {es}, and then reindex, if needed.
|
|
|
|
| <<watcher-ui, *Watcher*>>
|
|
|
|
Detect changes in your data by creating, managing, and monitoring alerts.
|
|
For example, create an alert when the maximum total CPU usage on a machine goes
|
|
above a certain percentage.

== Manage {kib}
|
|
|
|
[cols="50, 50"]
|
|
|===
|
|
|
|
a| <<advanced-options, *Advanced Settings*>>
|
|
|
|
Customize {kib} to suit your needs. Change the format for displaying dates, turn on dark mode,
|
|
set the timespan for notification messages, and much more.
|
|
|
|
| <<managing-fields, *Index Patterns*>>
|
|
|
|
Create and manage the index patterns that help you retrieve your data from {es}.
|
|
|
|
| <<reporting-getting-started, *Reporting*>>
|
|
|
|
Monitor the generation of reports—PDF, PNG, and CSV—and download reports that you previously generated.
|
|
A report can contain a dashboard, visualization, saved search, or Canvas workpad.
|
|
|
|
| <<managing-saved-objects, *Saved Objects*>>
|
|
|
|
Copy, edit, delete, import, and export your saved objects.
|
|
These include dashboards, visualizations, maps, index patterns, Canvas workpads, and more.
|
|
|
|
| <<xpack-spaces, *Spaces*>>
|
|
|
|
Create spaces to organize your dashboards and other saved objects into categories.
|
|
A space is isolated from all other spaces,
|
|
so you can tailor it to your needs without impacting others.
