Hi,

Right now on my server box we have 5 nodes associates with elastic search.  
I created repository with location on the same box and taking snaps. Its  
fine. But if some thing happen to the server box. then i can't restore the  
same backup from that box.  
Is there any way to take backup from server to some other machine which is  
in under the network?

Snapshots run in parallel across all nodes, so no you cannot.
