== Restore from snapshot
|
|
|
|
Elasticsearch is using snapshots to store a copy of your data outside a cluster. You can restore a snapshot to recover
|
|
indices and data streams for which there are no copies of the shards in the cluster. This can happen if the data
|
|
(indices or data streams) was deleted or if the cluster membership changed and the current nodes in the system do not
|
|
contain a copy of the data anymore.
|
|
|
|
IMPORTANT: Restoring the missing data requires you to have a backup of the affected indices and data streams that is
|
|
up-to-date enough for your use case. Please do not proceed without confirming this.
