After updating to ES App version 5.3.1, the extreme search commands no longer exist.

An error message is shown that the command is not found.

e.g.

Search: Access - Authentication Failures By Source - Context Gen

Unknown search command 'xsupdateddcontext'.

The Splunk Machine Learning Toolkit (MLTK) replaced Extreme Search:
