Several question related to Cross-Cluster replication ( awesome feature of Opensearch )

Hi @BlackMetalz

Process for deleting the index if auto follow is enabled.

  1. Delete auto follow pattern.
  2. Stop the replication.
  3. Delete follower index.

And yes stop replication needs to be called with every index name, it does not support regex.
We understand this involves multiple steps and there is a scope to multiplex stop calls. There are some challenges around permission model in enabling that, however it is worth thinking through in a github issue. Can you please open a github issue with all these details ? CCR devs will engage on it.

Thanks for elaborated post and raising this concern with us :+1:t4:.
