When I delete a big-data index,I saw my master node offline and recovery a while later.  
I just feel the delete syntax is calling in the data node,have nothing to do with the master node.  
Somebody help me to figure it out,thx!

Ok. What are the master node logs?

What is the output of:

```auto
GET /
GET /_cat/nodes?v
GET /_cat/health?v
GET /_cat/indices?v

```
