Hi Wells, what's the content of the cluster_config collection in MongoDB and specifically the document with "type" == "org.graylog2.indexer.management.IndexManagementConfig"?
Example: $ mongo graylog MongoDB shell version v3.4.0 connecting to: mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017/graylog MongoDB server version: 3.4.0 > db.cluster_config.find({"type": "org.graylog2.indexer.management.IndexManagementConfig"}).pretty() { "_id" : ObjectId("566ff2a6d792d5a5bf0b3860"), "type" : "org.graylog2.indexer.management.IndexManagementConfig", "payload" : { "rotation_strategy" : "org.graylog2.indexer.rotation.strategies.TimeBasedRotationStrategy", "retention_strategy" : "org.graylog2.indexer.retention.strategies.DeletionRetentionStrategy" }, "last_updated" : "2016-02-16T13:30:39.325Z", "last_updated_by" : "cd03ee44-b2a7-4824-be16-bb7456149dbd" } Also check the documents with "type" == $rotation_strategy ("org.graylog2.indexer.rotation.strategies.TimeBasedRotationStrategy" in this example) and $retention_strategy ("org.graylog2.indexer.retention.strategies.DeletionRetentionStrategy" in this example).
