I'm using the snapshot/restore feature of Elasticsearch, together with the Azure plugin to backup snapshots to Azure blob storage. Everything works when doing snapshots from a cluster and restoring to the same cluster. Now I'm in a situation where I want to restore an entirely new cluster (let's call that cluster b) from a snapshot generated from cluster a. When I run a restore request on cluster b, I get a 404. Doing a _status call on the snapshot, I get the same error:
{"error":"RepositoryMissingException[[elasticsearch_logs] missing]","status":404} The new cluster is configured with the Azure plugin and the same settings for Azure. I guess the error is caused by the fact, that Elasticsearch generates some metadata about the snapshots and store them locally in a the _snapshot index and this index is not on the new cluster. The same error is happening if I delete the data dir on cluster a and try to restore cluster a from a snapshot. How would I deal with a situation like this? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
