Backup

Restore

  1. Delete types from source index by edit values in _type array. Example:
POST index/_delete_by_query
{
  "query": {
    "bool": {
      "must": [
        {
          "terms": {
            "_type": [
              "type1",
              "type2"
            ]
          }
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
  1. Edit values in config.sh as below: 
    index=backup_index
backup=source_index
types=type1,type2
    Then run ./v5-backup.sh

Note: limit can be set to other value based on index size. Default is 1000.
