# delay [option_delay]
::::{note}
This setting is only used by the [forceMerge action](/reference/forcemerge.md), and is optional.
::::
```yaml
action: forcemerge
description: >-
Perform a forceMerge on selected indices to 'max_num_segments' per shard
options:
max_num_segments: 2
timeout_override: 21600
delay: 120
filters:
- filtertype: ...
```
The value for this setting is the number of seconds to delay between forceMerging indices, to allow the cluster to quiesce.
There is no default value.
