Hi Team,
Can we restore on prem snapshot to aws cloud through S3?
We created snapshot and dump indices to S3 and then we want to restore it to the cloud cluster.
We are using cloud-aws plugin both the sides

Welcome to our community! 😃
Yes you can do this as long as you add the repo to the Cloud cluster.

Thanks a lot warkolm.
Now we have created the snapshot repo with same settings.
and pushed onprem data to s3.
Now over cloud i have created a new index with different name and want to restore it from s3.
Could you please help here.
Below is my onprem repo settings.
```auto
curl -XPUT "http://localhost:9200/_snapshot/myrepo?pretty" -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d
'{
"type": "s3",
"settings": {
"bucket": "migrationbucket",
"base_path": "myindex",
"region": "us-east-1",
"access_key": "XXXXXXXXXXXXX",
"secret_key": "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
}
}'
```

Add the repo to the Cloud cluster and then run a restore.

when i call restore it says
`cannot restore index [INDEX_name] because it's open"`
I want to put data to another named index becasue we already have same index name on cloud.

You can rename restores, see [Restore a snapshot | Elasticsearch Reference [7.11] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/7.11/snapshots-restore-snapshot.html)
