💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using the repository name instead of the snapshot name in the URL.

Using a non-existent snapshot name.

The snapshot name must be used in the restore URL to specify which snapshot to restore.

4fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to create a snapshot that includes only 'logs-*' indices and excludes global state.

Elasticsearch

PUT /_snapshot/my_backup/[1]
{
  "indices": "[2]",
  "include_global_state": false
}

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using a generic snapshot name that doesn't match the indices.

Including global state when it should be excluded.

The snapshot name is 'snapshot_logs' and the indices pattern is 'logs-*' to include only log indices.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to restore 'snapshot_logs' from 'my_backup' repository, renaming 'logs-2023' to 'restored-logs-2023' and ignoring unavailable indices.

Elasticsearch

POST /_snapshot/my_backup/[1]/_restore
{
  "indices": "[2]",
  "rename_pattern": "[3]",
  "rename_replacement": "restored-logs-2023",
  "ignore_unavailable": true
}

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using incorrect snapshot or index names.

Not matching the rename pattern to the index name.

The snapshot name is 'snapshot_logs', the indices to restore is 'logs-2023', and the rename pattern matches the original index name.
