ignore_unavailable
This setting is used by the snapshot, restore, and index_settings actions.
This setting must be either True or False.
The default value of this setting is False
actions:
1:
action: restore
description: Restore my_index from my_snapshot in my_repository
options:
repository: my_repository
name: my_snapshot
indices: my_index
ignore_unavailable: True
wait_for_completion: True
max_wait: 3600
wait_interval: 10
filters:
- filtertype: state
state: SUCCESS
exclude:
- filtertype: ...
When the ignore_unavailable option is False and an index is missing the restore request will fail.
action: snapshot
description: >-
Snapshot selected indices to 'repository' with the snapshot name or name
pattern in 'name'. Use all other options as assigned
options:
repository: my_repository
name: my_snapshot
ignore_unavailable: False
wait_for_completion: True
max_wait: 3600
wait_interval: 10
filters:
- filtertype: ...
When the ignore_unavailable option is False and an index is missing, the snapshot request will fail. This is not frequently a concern in Curator, as it should only ever find indices that exist.
action: index_settings
description: "Change settings for selected indices"
options:
index_settings:
index:
refresh_interval: 5s
ignore_unavailable: False
preserve_existing: False
filters:
- filtertype: ...
When the ignore_unavailable option is False and an index is missing, or if the request is to apply a static setting and the index is opened, the index setting request will fail. The ignore_unavailable option allows these indices to be skipped, when set to True.
Dynamic index settings can be applied to either open or closed indices.
