Hi @Christian_Dahlqvist,

Is there any elasticsearch document available for creating a shared file system for snapshot configuration.

Please help me. Awaiting for your valuable response.

Thanks,

Is your question about "How to create a Shared FS" ?

If this is the case, it's not related to elasticsearch. Have a look at NFS for example. Or at your OS documentation.

Hi @amit.patra,

Please refer below link for creating a shared file system and for snapshot configuration.

[https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/modules-snapshots.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/modules-snapshots.html)

Or you can use curator for the snapshot.

Regards,  
Harsh
