Backing up index of ES

[alexanderpanchenko]

We need to deploy another instance of the ES index (in Weimar?) and make some screenshot backup using the standard means of it to make sure we have actually two indices running.

More details to be provided later.

Elasticsearch provides an API for creating and restoring snapshots: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/snapshot-restore.html
If you could make a snapshot in Hamburg, we'll be able to backup from the same in Weimar.
To store the snapshot, you should register a snapshot repository, from which we can access.

hello, indeed ES has this snapshot mechanism. the problem is that I could not do the snapshot for some reason. I tried many times, but in the end, it did not work. so I suggest that you contact Eugen Ruppert [email protected] who also was involved in this process and the original DepCC publication, ask for access and try to create a snapshot yourself.

I'll take care of contacting him, thx
was he also involved in creating the index for the Targer argument retrieval part?

[alexanderpanchenko]

No, the index for targer was created by Oleksiy
