An error will be thrown +if the request explicitly refers to a missing index. This behaviour can be +disabled using the `ignore_indices=missing` parameter. + +All indices can be opened or closed at once using `_all` as the index name +or specifying patterns that identify them all (e.g. `*`). +Closing all indices can be disabled by setting the `action.disable_close_all_indices` +flag in the config file to `true`. +
