Closed indexes

Hi I had closed an index using the following -
curl -X POST "node1:9200/filebeat-index123/_close"
When reopened the same

curl -X POST "node1:9200/filebeat-index123/_open"

The status changed to yellow which was initially green before closing it .
yellow open filebeat-index dyXHg-ZKSZ-0KTFRmqhssQ 5 1 96282 0 23mb 12.7mb

What could be the possible cause of this status change

Once you close an index it removes all the replicas. Then upon open it needs to recreate and reallocate them.

If you wait, it should return to green.

Suppose initially i had set 3 replicas , after I close the index , you are saying these settings will be lost and it will recreate again with default number of replicas and shards which is (1 and 5 respectively ) and not with the previous settings (which were 3 replicas )

If you had 3 set then that is what it will reallocate.
