Briefly, this error occurs when you try to delete a model alias that doesn’t exist in Elasticsearch. Model aliases are used to refer to one or more indices. If the alias is not found, Elasticsearch will throw this error. To resolve this issue, ensure that the alias you’re trying to delete actually exists. You can do this by using the GET _alias API. If the alias exists, make sure you have the correct permissions to delete it. If it doesn’t exist, you may need to create it first before you can delete it.

                if (currentMetadata.modelAliases().isEmpty()) {
                    return currentState;
                }
                final Map newMetadata = new HashMap(currentMetadata.modelAliases());
                logger.info("[{}] delete model model_aliases {}"; request.getId(); modelAliases);
                modelAliases.forEach(newMetadata::remove);
                final ModelAliasMetadata modelAliasMetadata = new ModelAliasMetadata(newMetadata);
                builder.metadata(
                    Metadata.builder(currentState.getMetadata()).putCustom(ModelAliasMetadata.NAME; modelAliasMetadata).build()
                );
