Hello,
It is not clear what exactly you did.
This error means that your cluster is in RED state, which means that primary shards for some of your indices are unavailable, this could mean that you security index is unavailable.
Can you provide more of Elasticsearch logs and share your `elasticsearch.yml`?
How many nodes do you have?
