Resume reindex process

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

Hi,

We are reindexing a 500gb data, but we dont know how to resume the reindexing once there has been an interruption, can you help us?

right now, we are doing this:

curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" --data '{"conflicts": "proceed","source": {"index": "source_index"},"dest": {"index": "destination_index","op_type": "create"}}' 'http://xxx.com/_reindex?wait_for_completion=false&refresh=true'

Thanks

What do you mean by "once there has been an interruption"? If the reindex tasks fails there is really no way to resume it. You can only start from scratch and ignore already reindex records like you do. There is really no better approach at the moment.
