What does the graph for "Objects Dropped From ILM" explain (Home -> Dashboards -> ILM)? After asynchronous deletion was activated, the values for "Objects Dropped From ILM" increased. But what does that mean? "Number of objects dropped from ILM queues because the queues contained too many objects." Will the objects be managed anyway, so the deletion will just be skipped and done later?

@gaunt fractal Did you find an answer to this? I don't see a single occurance of this on my grid for over a year.

Best to my knowledge, the "Objects Dropped From ILM" metrics means that an object have been dropped from memory. The cause can be many things; full queues, placement being unachievable etc. In your case asynchronous delete will put the delete request in a queue so I'm guess full queues might be the issue here. Deletes should be attempted again after reevaluation. There should be graphs available to see the status of the queues if you go to the ILM section of Grafana. If no progress is made it should also be possible to tweak deleteQueueWorkers to see if that improve things.
