Hi @ajeetsingh193

Welcome to Elastic community!

Did you check your kibana.yml file to have the following values set:

server.uuid:
server.name:

If it is set, but you still have an issue, can you provide stack version, installation type and post kibana.yml file so we get more context. What kind of indexes did you remove?
