I am trying to migrate my data from an old Elasticsearch(Version 1.4.4) Cluster to a new one (5.1)
I am using the reindex api in the new Elasticsearch, but can't get the old _timestamp to a new field timestamp. Everything else works fine.
trying to do something like this.
POST _reindex
{
"source": {
"remote": {
"host": "http://oldhost:9200"
},
"index": "source"
"query": {
"match_all": {}
}
},
"dest": {
"index": "dest"
},
"script": {
"lang": "painless",
"inline": "ctx._source.timestamp = ctx._timestamp
}
}
but the field timestamp in the new index is null.
