Hi All,

I have an issues with Backup/Restore

1. Created repository 'itest' on linux machine and gave privileges to the  
'itest' folder
2. Created snapshot 'snapshot\_test' with one indices 'i\_jobs\_v1'
3. Trying to verify and restore it

When i try to verify the snapshot with the below command, i am getting  
display below message success with one node and failure with other nodes.

GET /\_snapshot/itest/snapshot\_test

{  
"snapshots": [  
{  
"snapshot": "snapshot\_test",  
"indices": [  
"i\_jobs\_v1"  
],  
"state": "SUCCESS",  
"start\_time": "2015-02-05T06:13:38.974Z",  
"start\_time\_in\_millis": 1423116818974,  
"end\_time": "2015-02-05T06:13:40.164Z",  
"end\_time\_in\_millis": 1423116820164,  
"duration\_in\_millis": 1190,  
"failures": [  
{  
"node\_id": "Xgm6QLC\_QJKZdMtoLCPaIg",  
"index": "i\_jobs\_v1",  
"reason": "RepositoryMissingException[[itest] missing]",  
"shard\_id": 1,  
"status": "INTERNAL\_SERVER\_ERROR"  
},  
{  
"node\_id": "lvceiLfjQjmmbJFURbC1MA",  
"index": "i\_jobs\_v1",  
"reason": "RepositoryMissingException[[itest] missing]",  
"shard\_id": 3,  
"status": "INTERNAL\_SERVER\_ERROR"  
},  
{  
"node\_id": "8V2oWNcISvifY4L8PrBCrw",  
"index": "i\_jobs\_v1",  
"reason": "RepositoryMissingException[[itest] missing]",  
"shard\_id": 2,  
"status": "INTERNAL\_SERVER\_ERROR"  
},  
{  
"node\_id": "8V2oWNcISvifY4L8PrBCrw",  
"index": "i\_jobs\_v1",  
"reason": "RepositoryMissingException[[itest] missing]",  
"shard\_id": 4,  
"status": "INTERNAL\_SERVER\_ERROR"  
}  
],  
"shards": {  
"total": 5,  
"failed": 4,  
"successful": 1  
}  
}  
]  
}

When it try to restore the above same snapshot, it is giving below error

POST /\_snapshot/itest/snapshot\_test/\_restore

{  
"error": "SnapshotRestoreException[[itest:snapshot\_test] index [i\_test]  
wasn't fully snapshotted - cannot restore]",  
"status": 500  
}

Anything is wrong here ??
