Please format your code using `` icon as explained in [this guide](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/about-the-elasticsearch-category/21). It will make your post more readable. Or use markdown style like: ```` ``` CODE ``` ```` Did you try the migration plugin? ---

May be you need to reindex then? Not sure if reindex from remote API works with so old elasticsearch versions but you should give it a try and with that you could directly upgrade to 5.6! ---
