Hi @Jonny_Glazier,

I would try a rolling restart (restarting nodes one by one), or a full restart if the rolling restart doesn't solve the issue.

Check also [Snapshot in progress for long time. How do I delete it?](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/snapshot-in-progress-for-long-time-how-do-i-delete-it/17199/4)

Regards!  
Eduardo
