Hi, I am new to elasticsearch. I am not able to find good read on elasticsearch data backup/archive. I am setting up graylog2 with elasticsearch. I want to check can we archive data in elasticsearch which is _non active_. It may be monthly basis. So my elasticsearch don't have stale data which will help elasticsearch to be fast. In future If I need that archive data can I import that as well? Thanks for your help in advance. - Puneet -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

Hi, I installed below mentioned plugin. When I try to run below command: curl -X POST '[http://localhost:9200/\_export](http://localhost:9200/_export)' -d '{ "fields": ["\_id", "\_source"], "output\_file": "/home/pgarg/puneet/study\_projects/logstash/archive/dump-${index}-${shard}" } ' I am getting "curl: (52) Empty reply from server". Do you have any idea? My understanding is it will create new index called _export and put all data which needs to be exported under that and in mentioned file as json. Am I correct? In readme.txt it's mentioned we can look for all or selected indexes. Can you please give me an example? Basically I am looking for indexes those starts with graylog2_ i.e. prefix. Is there a way where in we can mention indexes prefix to run query in elasticsearch? -Puneet On Mon, Apr 29, 2013 at 3:26 PM, Puneet Garg [puneet.garg0109@gmail.com](mailto:puneet.garg0109@gmail.com)wrote: > Thanks will check the same. > > -Puneet > > On Mon, Apr 29, 2013 at 3:19 PM, dobe [bernddorn@gmail.com](mailto:bernddorn@gmail.com) wrote: > > > hi > > > > we just wrote a plugin for exporting data based on a query directly on > > the data nodes, and we are currently working on the re-import . i think > > this is exactly what you need. take look at the examples in the readme > > [GitHub - crate/elasticsearch-inout-plugin: An Elasticsearch plugin which provides the ability to export data by query on server side.](https://github.com/crate/elasticsearch-inout-plugin) > > > > br, bernd > > > > On Monday, April 29, 2013 9:38:21 AM UTC+2, Puneet Garg wrote: > > > > > Hi, > > > I am new to elasticsearch.

Do you have any idea? hi could you please tell me which version of elasticsearch you use. Or you could also investigate the elasticsearch log files, maybe there is more information about this failure. > My understanding is it will create new index called \_export and put all data which needs to be exported under that and in mentioned file as json. Am I correct? No this is not the case. It directly exports the data in json format to the local filesystem of each node to the given path. There should be one file for each shard. It does not create any index. > In readme.txt it's mentioned we can look for all or selected indexes. Can you please give me an example? Basically I am looking for indexes those starts with graylog2\_ i.e. prefix. Is there a way where in we can mention indexes prefix to run query in elasticsearch? This works the same way the \_search endpoint works in elasticsearch. see [Elasticsearch Platform — Find real-time answers at scale | Elastic](http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/api/multi-index/) So your request should look like this (with gzip compression on): curl -vvX POST '[http://localhost:9200/graylog2\_\*/\_export](http://localhost:9200/graylog2_*/_export)' -d '{ "fields": ["\_id", "\_source"], "output\_file": "/home/pgarg/puneet/study\_projects/logstash/archive/dump-${index}-${shard}.gz", "compression": "gzip" } Note that this export all matching indexes, which might not be what you want. If you do this on a daily basis you might want to export only the newest index because any other would have been already exported. You might also want to take a look at the force\_overwrite option described on [GitHub - crate/elasticsearch-inout-plugin: An Elasticsearch plugin which provides the ability to export data by query on server side.](https://github.com/crate/elasticsearch-inout-plugin) which forces to overwrite files that have been generated in a previous run.

Hi Bernd, I was using elasticsearch-0.20.6 and it was breaking with below error: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.elasticsearch.cluster.routing.operation.OperationRouting.searchShards(Lorg/elasticsearch/cluster/ClusterState;[Ljava/lang/String;[Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/util/Map;Ljava/lang/String;)Lorg/elasticsearch/cluster/routing/GroupShardsIterator; I checked APIs and found method signature changed. I upgraded to elasticsearch-0.90.0 and tried plugin it's working!! Thanks a lot for you help. I agree with your point that I would not like to export already exported data. I will be deleting data after exporting that will make elasticsearch quick by not having stale data. So already exported data will not be available next time. As mentioned, I will be waiting for importing option, so in future I want to analyze patterns, I will import all exported data and that should do the job. -Puneet On Thu, May 2, 2013 at 11:59 AM, Bernd Dorn [bernddorn@gmail.com](mailto:bernddorn@gmail.com) wrote: > On May 1, 2013, at 12:36 , Puneet Garg [puneet.garg0109@gmail.com](mailto:puneet.garg0109@gmail.com) wrote: > > Hi, > I installed below mentioned plugin.

Hi, With elastichsearch 0.90.3 version elasticsearch-inout-plugin works fine. So, as David said, it's a compatibility problem with elasticserarch versions \> 0.90.3.

I am also interested in creating some type of archiving tool, so I updated the code and sent a pull request 0.90.4: [GitHub - brusic/elasticsearch-inout-plugin at 0.90.4](https://github.com/brusic/elasticsearch-inout-plugin/tree/0.90.4) 0.90.6: [GitHub - brusic/elasticsearch-inout-plugin at 0.90.6](https://github.com/brusic/elasticsearch-inout-plugin/tree/0.90.6) The initial phase of the elasticsearch snapshot/restore API has just been committed: [Snapshot/Restore API - Phase I · Issue #3826 · elastic/elasticsearch · GitHub](https://github.com/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/issues/3826) I will probably hold off until 1.0 is released.
