Hi , I am using the below REST command to create 30+ indexes. But they are getting created with default size as 500 GB.
How can I pass argument to restrict the total index size as 5GB?

curl -k -u admin:pass https://localhost:8089/services/data/indexes \
-d name=mymetricsindex \
-d datatype=metric

The below command will work.
curl -k -u admin:pass https://localhost:8089/services/data/indexes \
-d name=mymetricsindex \
-d datatype=metric \
-d maxTotalDataSizeMB=5120
