Hi,

I'm using cross cluster search and searching for a document by \_id that exists in both clusters.  
ES returns with 2 hits (1 in local index, 1 in remote index). I just want the one in the local index. How can I remove the duplicate from the remote cluster ?

Query :

GET [http://localhost:9200/index1,remote\_cluster:index1/\_search](http://localhost:9200/index1,remote_cluster:index1/_search)  
{  
"query": {  
"terms": {  
"\_id": ["123"]  
}  
}  
}
