If you only want to retain log data for 30 days, you can set Graylog’s retention strategy in its configuration file:
elasticsearch_max_time_per_index = 1d
elasticsearch_max_number_of_indices = 30
retention_strategy = delete
This configures Elasticsearch to have one index per day with a total of 30 indexes meaning only 30 days worth of data will be stored. You may see better search performance if you adjust the values (e.g. 12 hours and 60 indices).
