2. Verify the Repository

   After creating the repository, verify it to ensure it is set up correctly:

   Code Block
   curl -X GET "http://<es_node_ip>:9200/_snapshot/my_backup"

3. Create a Snapshot

   Once the repository is set up and verified, create a snapshot of your index. Replace index_mumbkctcomobs.ipstorage.tatacommunications.com0 with your index name.

   Code Block
   curl -X PUT "http://<es_node_ip>:9200/_snapshot/my_backup/snapshot_$(date +\%Y\%m\%d\%H\%M)" -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d' { "indices": "index_mumbkctcomobs.ipstoragedatacore.tatacommunicationscom.com0", "ignore_unavailable": true, "include_global_state": false }'

4. Automate Snapshot Creation

   To automate the creation of snapshots, you can use cron jobs on Linux or scheduled tasks on Windows.

   Example using a cron job (runs daily at 2 AM):

   Code Block
   0 2 * * * curl -X PUT "http://<es_node_ip>:9200/_snapshot/my_backup/snapshot_$(date +\%Y\%m\%d\%H\%M)" -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d' { "indices": "index_mumbkctcomobs.ipstoragedatacore.tatacommunicationscom.com0", "ignore_unavailable": true, "include_global_state": false }'

5. Monitor Snapshots

   Regularly check the status of your snapshots to ensure they are completing successfully:

   Code Block
   curl -X GET "http://<es_node_ip>:9200/_snapshot/my_backup/_all/_status"

6. Restoring a Snapshot (if needed)

   If you need to restore a snapshot, you can do so with the following command:

   Code Block
   curl -X POST "http://<es_node_ip>:9200/_snapshot/my_backup/snapshot_<snapshot_date>/_restore" -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d' { "indices": "index_mumbkctcomobs.ipstoragedatacore.tatacommunicationscom.com0", "ignore_unavailable": true, "include_global_state": false }'
