I have an index, let's call it myindex, and I updated the settings to make
it read-only like so:
PUT myindex/_settings {"blocks": { "read_only": "true" }}
This worked as expected, but now I am stuck! I need to delete this index,
but I cannot modify this index because blocks.read_only also disables
meta-data updates.
I tried to do undo it like so, but it failed:
PUT myindex/_settings {"blocks": { "read_only": "false" }}
ClusterBlockException[blocked by: [FORBIDDEN/5/index read-only (api)];];
So I thought closing it first would help, but that failed too:
POST myindex/_close
ClusterBlockException[blocked by: [FORBIDDEN/5/index read-only (api)];];
Deleting the index failed with the same exception.
Am I stuck with this index until then end of time!?!
