I have a cluster with 4 nodes. When the 3 slaves are stoped and I start the master, I’ve got this error. Could you help me please.

{"error":{"root\_cause":[{"type":"cluster\_block\_exception","reason":"blocked by: [SERVICE\_UNAVAILABLE/1/state not recovered / initialized];"}],"type":"cluster\_block\_exception","reason":"blocked by: [SERVICE\_UNAVAILABLE/1/state not recovered / initialized];"},"status":503}
