I am doing snapshot using rest api for my elasticsearch indices, and I want to put the snapshot away for backup
This is the example of generating a snapshot
PUT /_snapshot/index-backups1/snapshot-2017.05.29
{
"indices": "logstash-2017.05.29",
"ignore_unavailable": true,
"include_global_state": false
}
I found the snapshot folder is not human readable.
I took 7 snapshots for different indices, and these are the 7 folder names generated
I want to put away snapshots in cheaper storage like AWS Glacier as a daily routine, and later I need to restore some of them. It would be impossible for me to find out the folders and restore when the folder names are not human readable.
Can you provide me a solution for the human readable name of the snapshot?
