Can I use the snapshot and restore module of elastic search to export one  
index to all together to a new elastic search cluster.

For e.g. Can I export all the indices from development cluster to QA  
cluster?

Thanks David.

So suppose, I have two cluster "dev cluster" and "QA cluster" and trying to  
copy all the indices from the dev to QA cluster.

1. Create a repository in dev
2. snapshot all the indices
3. Create a repository in QA
4. copy all the files from dev repository to QA
5. Restore the indices from the QA snapshot in QA cluster

Please let me know whether I export the indices by following the above  
steps. If yes, then is this the only way or there are more easier and  
better approach.

Exactly.

Note that if you can simply « mount » your repository FS on both systems, you won’t need to run step 4.  
Same applies if you are using S3, Azure or HDFS.

Sorry. I don't understand what you mean.

So snapshot works?  
Then you copied files to another place.  
The you restored?

And what happened?

We run into a similar problems recently after a very recent upgrade from ES  
1.2.2 to ES 1.3.4.

In our scenario, we have two ES clusters and a HDFS system which both can  
access.

Indices are created on one of them, snapshotted to HDFS repository (named  
after the index) and then restored on the other cluster. This worked fine  
(when ignoring random error messages) on 1.2.2. After the upgrade to 1.3.4,  
however, clusters don't seem to be able to see new snapshots made on the  
other system. Files sit in HDFS, it is possible to restore locally,  
accessing:  
https://..com/\_snapshot/\<repository\_name\>/\_all  
returns the expected list while  
https://..com/\_snapshot/\<repository\_name\>/\_all  
is empty. Beforehand, the lists were identical.

I will try to check version 1.3.2 tomorrow, but remaining clueless at the  
moment.
