I refer to this url to start my code:  
[https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/client/java-rest/master/java-rest-high.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/client/java-rest/master/java-rest-high.html)  
But I got a exception:  
ElasticsearchStatusException[Elasticsearch exception [type=index\_not\_found\_exception, reason=no such index]]  
I want to set ignore\_unavailable=true to elasticsearch , so I try to get any help from the url，but I can not found any useful message, What can't I do?

//ignore\_unavailable allow\_no\_indices=true expand\_wildcards\_open expand\_wildcards\_closed  
searchRequest.indicesOptions(searchRequest.indicesOptions().fromOptions(true, true, true, false));
