Hi,

As it is mentioned on the elasticsearch documentation "[https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/5.2/delayed-allocation.html#\_monitoring\_delayed\_unassigned\_shards](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/5.2/delayed-allocation.html#_monitoring_delayed_unassigned_shards)".  
We wanted to modify the delayed\_timeout to reboot one of node for maintenance reason.  
But when we launched the curl command

curl -XPUT 'localhost:9200/\_all/\_settings?pretty' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d'  
{  
"settings": {  
"index.unassigned.node\_left.delayed\_timeout": "5m"  
}  
}  
'  
The answer was "No handler found for uri [/\_all/settings] and method [PUT]"

Thanks for your help

Hi @valf,

this seems to be a typo somewhere? The error message says: "No handler found for uri [/_all/settings] and method [PUT]" (note it says **settings** (without an underscore) but not **\_settings** in the error message). Can you please double-check that you've included the "_"?

When I try your statement against an empty Elasticsearch node (version 5.2.1) I get the following response:

```auto
{
   "error": {
      "root_cause": [
         {
            "type": "index_not_found_exception",
            "reason": "no such index",
            "resource.type": "index_expression",
            "resource.id": "_all"
         }
      ],
      "type": "index_not_found_exception",
      "reason": "no such index",
      "resource.type": "index_expression",
      "resource.id": "_all"
   },
   "status": 404
}

```

If I create an index and then issue the call, it returns fine.

Daniel
