=== Adding a policy to an index
To add a lifecycle policy to an index and view the status for indices
managed by a policy, open the menu, then go to *Stack Management > Data > Index Management*.
This page lists your
{es} indices, which you can filter by lifecycle status and lifecycle phase.
To add a policy, select the index name and then select *Manage Index > Add lifecycle policy*.
Youll see the policy name, the phase the index is in, the current
action, and if any errors occurred performing that action.
To remove a policy from an index, select *Manage Index > Remove lifecycle policy*.
