Hi Everybody,

I have some problems restoring EL 7.3.2 to another machine with EL 7.5.  
I made EL snapshot in shared backup folder. This is ok.  
I registered the backup folder in the new machine where I want to restore the snapshot.  
The new machine can reach the snapshot.

I invoke this script from powershell:  
Invoke-RestMethod "[http://localhost:9200/\_snapshot/BACKUP/SNAPTHOT\_XXX/\_restore?wait\_for\_completion=true](http://localhost:9200/_snapshot/BACKUP/SNAPTHOT_XXX/_restore?wait_for_completion=true)" -Method Post;

But I'm still getting this error message:

{"error":{"root\_cause":[{"type":"invalid\_index\_name\_exception","reason":"Invalid index name [.kibana\_task\_manager], already exists as  
alias","index\_uuid":"_na_","index":".kibana\_task\_manager"}],"type":"invalid\_index\_name\_exception","reason":"Invalid index name [.kibana\_task\_manager], already exists as  
alias","index\_uuid":"_na_","index":".kibana\_task\_manager"},"status":400}

I cannot find the solution, can anyone help me please?  
I also used this powershell command as Administrator.  
I also used this:  
POST /\_snapshot/my\_backup/snapshot\_1/\_restore

But I obtain the same error.

Any idea?  
Thanks in advance.

Regards,  
Alessandro
