Hi. I have a problem with getting data from elasticsearch, but I have no idea what is the reason. This is error from logfile:

```
17/06/06 03:00:10 ERROR ApplicationMaster: User class threw exception: org.elasticsearch.hadoop.rest.EsHadoopInvalidRequest: [GET] on [data_abc_20170508/data/_search] failed; server[localhost:9200] returned [503|Service Unavailable:]
org.elasticsearch.hadoop.rest.EsHadoopInvalidRequest: [GET] on [data_abc_20170508/data/_search] failed; server[localhost:9200] returned [503|Service Unavailable:]

```

Index "data\_abc\_20170508" exists. Maybe the reason is that I do a snapshot of index (and save data to HDFS), but it is not index "data\_abc\_20170508". Does anyone know this issue and can give me advice what is the reason?

**EDIT**  
Ok, I think I know what is the reason. To do snapshot I have to open index which was closed. While I open old index my search on "data\_abc\_\*" give me this error, because shards are not allocated yet for old index.

Is it possible to open old index (for example "data\_abc\_20170501") and search "data\_abc\_\*" at the same time?
