 While it is recommended to use {ilm-init} to manage the index lifecycle from
 start to finish, it may be useful to use {ilm-init} with existing indices,
-particularly when transitioning from an alternative method of managing the index
-lifecycle such as Curator, or when migrating from daily indices to
-rollover-based indices. Such use cases are fully supported, but there are some
-configuration differences from when {ilm-init} can manage the complete index
-lifecycle.

 This section describes strategies to leverage {ilm-init} for existing periodic
 indices when migrating to fully {ilm-init}-manged indices, which can be done in
