Hi,

I am using ElasticSearch 1.2.0.

I have a question about the solution to solve the "Shard unassigned" 
problem.

Here my setup, pretty simple:
1 NODE - 2 SHARDS / index - NO REPLICA

The situation is the following:
 - I manually moved all the content of */var/data/elasticsearc*h to another 
location for backup need;
   So I am able to start with a fresh cluster.
 - I restarted the service and everything was going fine until I realised 
that all my *Kibana dashboards were not available* on the newly live 
cluster.
   I understood it was because of the previous move of the files, so I 
simply moved the* kibana-int* index directory from the backup dir back to 
*/var/data/elasticsearch* 

If it was so simple...:)
The new cluster showed the old *kibana-int* index as unassigned despite 
restart of the service.

Questions:
 - How the new cluster can unassigned this index (does it see that it does 
not created this index itself based on timestamp or other, and therefore 
decide to not take it...) ?
 - How can I assign this index ? The only solution I know is to start 
another node (so a 2 nodes cluster) hoping that the second node will take 
the* kibana-int *and then move this index onto the first node.

Thanks a lot for sharing your experience on this matters, I am sure it will 
help other.

Best Regards,
Alex
