Changes in ES template not getting reflected in the index mappings

[Deepak]

Hi,

I am trying to create a common template in ES which can be used for all the logstash indices created.

http://localhost:9200/_template?pretty

{
  "events-template" : {
    "order" : 0,
    "template" : "*",
    "settings" : {
      "index.refresh_interval" : "5s"
    },

I see that this change is not getting reflected in the index mappings ( http://localhost:9200/_all/_mapping?pretty )

I have tried restarting the ES service as well but in vain.  Could you let me know how to get this done correctly? I am expecting logstash indices in the following formats ( xx-logstash-*, logstash-xx-* ) and would like to use the same mappings for all such index types.

Thank you.
