All,
curator snapshot backups are not working after enable TLS/SSL and we see below errors when we test with dry run
```
Traceback (most recent call last):

sys.exit(cli())

'Error: {0}'.format(e)
elasticsearch.exceptions.ElasticsearchException: Unable to create client connection to Elasticsearch. Error: ConnectionError([SSL: UNKNOWN_PROTOCOL] unknown protocol (_ssl.c:618)) caused by: SSLError([SSL: UNKNOWN_PROTOCOL] unknown protocol (_ssl.c:618))
```
Please suggest is there any solution for this.
Thanks

I see Python 2.7. How was Curator installed? On what OS? Which version?
