Hi ES,

Below is my code and I am trying to take a snapshot from one cluster and restore it in different cluster using Elasticsearch Curator.

- 

````auto
    1:
      action: restore
      description: >-
        Restore all indices in the most recent snapshot with state SUCCESS. Wait
        for the restore to complete before continuing. Do not skip the repository
        filesystem access check. Use the other options to define the index/shard
        settings for the restore.
      options:
        repository: es_backup_qa
        # Leaving name blank will result in the default 'curator-%Y%m%d%H%M%S'
        name:
        # If name is blank, the most recent snapshot by age will be selected
        indices: ['index-00001']
        rename_pattern: 'index(.+)'
        rename_replacement: 'restored_index$1'
        wait_for_completion: True
        max_wait: 3600
        wait_interval: 10
      filters:
      - filtertype: state
        state: SUCCESS
        exclude:```

````

While doing restoring - I am receiving the below error in kubernetes cron job and **kubernetes pod** is ending with **error** status: Below is the Log :

```auto

Please help

You'll have to turn off the blacklisting in your client connection:

```auto
logging:
  loglevel: DEBUG
  blacklist: []

```

This will show all `urllib3` and `elasticsearch` library log data (it's exceptionally verbose, which is why they're excluded by default). This will give a clearer picture of what is happening behind the scenes.
