Hi,
Is it possible, at snapshot time, to snapshot only primary shards?
Thx

Yes, indeed snapshotting the primary shards is how it works today.
When we restore I see that both primaries and replicas are restored. How do I prevent the replicas being rebuilt?
Set index.number_of_replicas to 0, either during the restore by using the index_settings parameter of the restore API or afterwards using the update index settings API.
