Hi Team,

I need to restore the backup from one instance to another if i give below command its not able to find the snapshot in other instance by the way they have the same repository and restore within the same instance is working:

kindly let me know if there are any other options as well

```auto
curl -X POST "https://localhost:9243/_snapshot/found-snapshots/test_snapshot-”2021-10-05-11-47”/_restore?pretty" -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d'
{
  "indices": ".geoip_databases",
  "ignore_unavailable": true,
  "include_global_state": true,
  "rename_pattern": "index_(.+)",
  "rename_replacement": "restored_index_$1"
}
'
{
  "error" : {
    "root_cause" : [
      {
        "type" : "snapshot_restore_exception",
        "reason" : "[found-snapshots:test_snapshot-”2021-10-05-11-47”] snapshot does not exist"
      }
    ],
    "type" : "snapshot_restore_exception",
