I took backup in my ES 5.1.1
PUT /_snapshot/my_backup/snapshot_1
{
"indices": "smsc",
"ignore_unavailable": true
}
My snapshot look like
PUT /_snapshot/my_backup
{
"type": "fs",
"settings": {
"location": "/home/GEMS/ES/backup",
"compress": true,
"chunk_size": "10m"
}
}
Now I want to restore this data into another ES. I zipped the folder and moved into new server. How to restore this now into new server. I need to give mappings first or by default the mapping will come along with data???
