Option 3: You split the index , which amounts to increasing the shard number for that domain.

Note: this option requires scheduled maintenance window as the index needs to be in read-only mode during this split process.

Veeam v12.1 introduced a new feature to temporarily disable background retention, you will need to activate this during the split operation. ( See https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backup/vsphere/backup_background_retention_disable.html?ver=120 )

For more details see: TODO final link [DRAFT] Steps to split or reduce the number of shards in perdomain index /wiki/spaces/~5f4d1b7773a268004df5fcac/pages/3696558130

Note

Keep in mind that splitting an existing index will increase the shards it uses and account towards the maximum 600 shards per node limit.

In the example above we had 5 data nodes, with 600 shards per node this means Swarm can support up to 250 domains ( some indexes indices are needed for csmetrics, kibana, etc.. )
