You should not directly interact with index files on disk. Instead use the APIs, which will allow you to work with indices and shards. What is it you are trying to do?

To move data between server I would recommend wither using [reindex from remote](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/6.4/reindex-upgrade-remote.html) or [snapshot and restore](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/6.4/modules-snapshots.html). You should not be moving or replicating files at the filesystem level.
