Hello all, I'm working on removing nodes from my cluster to drain and I'm getting the errors

{"error":{"root\_cause":[{"type":"index\_not\_found\_exception","reason":"no such index and [action.auto\_create\_index] ([.monitoring-_,filebeat_]) doesn't match","index\_uuid":"_na_","index":"\_cluster"}],"type":"index\_not\_found\_exception","reason":"no such index and [action.auto\_create\_index] ([.monitoring-_,filebeat_]) doesn't match","index\_uuid":"_na_","index":"\_cluster"},"status":404}

Hello, thanks for the welcome 🙂  
I used the following command but it turns out that I had an extra "/" in my command. I removed it and it worked.  
curl --header 'content-type: application/json' -XPUT "[http://localhost:9200/\_cluster/settings](http://localhost:9200/_cluster/settings)" -d '{"transient" :{"cluster.routing.allocation.exclude.\_ip" : "1.2.3.4"}}}'
