Hi, I did some changes to Kibaba index patterns: e.g. I had 2 monthly index patterns: "myindex-2019-04" and "myindex-2019-05", I deleted them and created new index pattern to include both: "myindex-\* ". After that, I changed all my visuzation to point to "myindex-\*" id and not "myindex-2019-05" or "myindex-2019-04" (I did it through Management -\> Saved Object panel). After that , I noticed that when I try to open some visualizations, I got " 5 of 10 shards failed" errors without any stack trace. This happened not for all visualizations. Here is result of my Cluster Stats: ``` { "_nodes": { "total": 15, "successful": 15, "failed": 0 }, "cluster_name": "563885087084:vsemetricssushiprod", "timestamp": 1557846138332, "status": "green", "indices": { "count": 5, "shards": { "total": 42, "primaries": 21, "replication": 1, "index": { "shards": { "min": 2, "max": 10, "avg": 8.4 }, "primaries": { "min": 1, "max": 5, "avg": 4.2 }, "replication": { "min": 1, "max": 1, "avg": 1 } } }, "docs": { "count": 7464927981, "deleted": 7 }, "store": { "size": "8.3tb", "size_in_bytes": 9135031497919 }, "fielddata": { "memory_size": "57.5gb", "memory_size_in_bytes": 61769174656, "evictions": 0 }, "query_cache": { "memory_size": "1.1gb", "memory_size_in_bytes": 1264182064, "total_count": 535101, "hit_count": 46532, "miss_count": 488569, "cache_size": 6581, "cache_count": 10211, "evictions": 3630 }, "completion": { "size": "0b", "size_in_bytes": 0 }, "segments": { "count": 2380, "memory": "19.4gb", "memory_in_bytes": 20857350220, "terms_memory": "16.9gb", "terms_memory_in_bytes": 18227430454, "stored_fields_memory": "2.3gb", "stored_fields_memory_in_bytes": 2477163768, "term_vectors_memory": "0b", "term_vectors_memory_in_bytes": 0, "norms_memory": "3.6mb", "norms_memory_in_bytes": 3857920, "points_memory": "141.8mb", "points_memory_in_bytes": 148714118, "doc_values_memory": "179.6kb", "doc_values_memory_in_bytes": 183960, "index_writer_memory": "0b", "index_writer_memory_in_bytes": 0, "version_map_memory": "0b", "version_map_memory_in_bytes": 0, "fixed_bit_set": "0b", "fixed_bit_set_memory_in_bytes": 0, "max_unsafe_auto_id_timestamp": -1, "file_sizes": {} } }, "nodes": { "count": { "total": 15, "data": 12, "coordinating_only": 0, "master": 3, "ingest": 12 }, "versions": [ "6.4.2" ], "os": { "available_processors": 102, "allocated_processors": 102, "names": [ { "count": 15 } ], "mem": { "total": "400.3gb", "total_in_bytes": 429922283520, "free": "10gb", "free_in_bytes": 10803552256, "used": "390.3gb", "used_in_bytes": 419118731264, "free_percent": 3, "used_percent": 97 } }, "process": { "cpu": { "percent": 103 }, "open_file_descriptors": { "min": 976, "max": 1672, "avg": 1240 } }, "jvm": { "max_uptime": "36d", "max_uptime_in_millis": 3113697500, "mem": { "heap_used": "110.9gb", "heap_used_in_bytes": 119181292112, "heap_max": "206.1gb", "heap_max_in_bytes": 221375496192 }, "threads": 2520 }, "fs": { "total": "17.3tb", "total_in_bytes": 19033313402880, "free": "8.7tb", "free_in_bytes": 9622869487616, "available": "7.8tb", "available_in_bytes": 8656250187776 }, "network_types": { "transport_types": { "netty4": 15 }, "http_types": { "filter-jetty": 15 } } } } ``` GET \_cluster/health : ``` { "cluster_name": "563885087084:vsemetricssushiprod", "status": "green", "timed_out": false, "number_of_nodes": 15, "number_of_data_nodes": 12, "active_primary_shards": 21, "active_shards": 42, "relocating_shards": 0, "initializing_shards": 0, "unassigned_shards": 0, "delayed_unassigned_shards": 0, "number_of_pending_tasks": 0, "number_of_in_flight_fetch": 0, "task_max_waiting_in_queue_millis": 0, "active_shards_percent_as_number": 100 } ``` /cat/indicies: health status index uuid pri rep docs.count docs.deleted store.size pri.store.size green open myindex-2019-04 my-id 5 1 4606992997 0 5tb 2.5tb green open .kibana my-id 1 1 28 7 491.1kb 245.5kb green open myindex my-id 5 1 0 0 2.5kb 1.2kb green open myindex-2019-05 my-id 5 1 2871736396 0 3.2tb 1.6tb ---

Exact Ditto error. exact change made. index-job was in there created index-job-2019 and created indexpattern index-job\* and now I get error saying same N of n shards failed. I will keep eye on this thread for my solution as well ---

That index pattern is covering indices which are missing shards (data). What is the result of [\_cluster/health](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/cluster-health.html) and [\_cat/indices](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/6.1/_list_all_indices.html)? ---

Thanks for replying! Updated my post with cluster health and \_cat/indicies ---

With the updated `_cat/indices` response, I don't see any indices which would match your index pattern. Is that expected? ---

Sorry, updated index name to match. ---

Everything looks OK regarding the cluster state. Is this still a problem for you? Is it possible that some nodes were down when you were receiving that error previously? ---
