elasticsearchHow do I create an Elasticsearch snapshot?
Creating an Elasticsearch snapshot is a two-step process:
- Create a Repository:
A repository is a location where snapshots are stored. To create a repository, use the PUT
API with the repository name as a parameter. The following example creates a repository named my_backup
:
PUT _snapshot/my_backup
{
"type": "fs",
"settings": {
"location": "/mnt/my_backup"
}
}
- Create a Snapshot:
Once the repository is created, snapshots can be taken. To create a snapshot, use the PUT
API with the repository name and snapshot name as parameters. The following example creates a snapshot named my_snapshot
in the my_backup
repository:
PUT _snapshot/my_backup/my_snapshot
The snapshot will be created in the repository location (/mnt/my_backup
in this example) and can be used for restoring the cluster.
