Hi, ES\_DEV cluster have setup 2 JVMs on each of the 3 servers. 1 master and 1 data on each. Server 1 will have 3rd JVM will act as a client node. Server 1  master, data & client Server 2  master & data Server 3  master & data I have configured the repository path in all yml files as below **Repo path:- [/app/data1/ES\_DEV/Backup** **Curl command** using for creating repository **curl -XPUT '[http://localhost](http://localhost):port/\_snapshot/backup' -d'{"type": "fs","settings":{"location": "/app/data1/ES\_DEV/Backup","compress": true}}'** I am trying to create repository for snapshot but I am getting below error. {"error":"RemoteTransportException[[server1\_MASTER][inet[/localhost:port]][cluster:admin/repository/put]]; nested: RepositoryVerificationException[[backup] [h3X-fIJCdAUbtMIFPmg, 'RemoteTransportException[[server2\_DATA][inet[/localhost:port]][internal:admin/repository/verify]]; nested: **RepositoryVerificationException[[backup] a file written by master to the store [/app/data1/ES\_DEV/Backup] cannot be accessed on the node** [[server2\_DATA][h3X-fTCdAUMPmg][server2.enterprisenet.org][inet[server2.enterprisenet.org/localhost:port]]{max\_local\_storage\_nodes=1, master=false}]. **This might indicate that the store [/app/data1/ES\_DEV/Backup] is not shared between this node and the master node or that permissions on the store don't allow reading files written by the master node**]; '], [kVMUt57CRfu6z, 'RemoteTransportException[[server3\_DATA][inet[/localhost:port]][internal:admin/repository/verify]]; nested: **RepositoryVerificationException[[backup] a file written by master to the store [/app/data1/ES\_DEV/Backup] cannot be accessed on the node** [[server3\_DATA][kVMUtu6zlttA0W18w][server3.enterprisenet.org][inet[server3.enterprisenet.org/ localhost:port]]{max\_local\_storage\_nodes=1, master=false}]. **This might indicate that the store [/app/data1/ES\_DEV/Backup] is not shared between this node and the master node or that permissions on the store don't allow reading files written by the master node**]; '], [LBiEQqtZT\_9uZQ, 'RemoteTransportException[[server1\_MASTER][inet[/localhost:port]][internal:admin/repository/verify]]; nested: **RepositoryVerificationException[[backup] a file written by master to the store [/app/data1/ES\_DEV/Backup] cannot be accessed on the node** [[server3\_MASTER][LBtZTEONpUFPH\_9uZQ][server3.enterprisenet.org][inet[server3.enterprisenet.org/ localhost:port]]{max\_local\_storage\_nodes=1, data=false, master=true}]. **This might indicate that the store [/app/data1/ES\_DEV/Backup] is not shared between this node and the master node or that permissions on the store don't allow reading files written by the master node**]; '], [Pc-1S5KE3dFlqpj 'RemoteTransportException[[server2\_MASTER][inet[/localhost:port]][internal:admin/repository/verify]]; nested: RepositoryMissingException[[backup] missing]; ']]]; ","status":500}[esadmin@server1bin]$ Please let me know any suggestions to fix this issue and it will be very helpful..

Your dir must be accessible using the exact same path on all nodes. Is it the case here? ---

Hi David, Thanks for the response. No, its's not I don't have accessible on all nodes. Because I am having 3 physical servers in which I have **10 disk local storage** like **(disk1,...disk10)** each disk has **1TB** size and it's same as in all the servers. How to make it accessible across all the nodes? It really helpful if you recommend any suggestions. Thanks, Ganesh ---

It's a sys admin thing. You can use NFS for example. ---
