Require urls for URL repository to be listed in repositories.url.allowed_urls setting. This change ensures that only authorized URLs can be accessed by elasticsearch
Information about in-progress snapshot and restore processes is not really metadata and should be represented as a part of the cluster state similar to discovery nodes, routing table, and cluster blocks. Since in-progress snapshot and restore information is no longer part of metadata, this refactoring also enables us to handle cluster blocks in more consistent manner and allow creation of snapshots of a read-only cluster.
Closes#8102
Together with #8782 it should help in the situations simliar to #8887 by adding an ability to get information about currently running snapshot without accessing the repository itself.
Closes#8887
This change adds a new cluster state that waits for the replication of a shard to finish before starting snapshotting process. Because this change adds a new snapshot state, an pre-1.2.0 nodes will not be able to join the 1.2.0 cluster that is currently running snapshot/restore operation.
Closes#5531
Fixes#4701. Changes behavior of the snapshot operation. The operation now fails if not all primary shards are available at the beginning of the snapshot operation. The restore operation no longer tries to restore indices with shards that failed or were missing during snapshot operation.
* `ignore_unavailable` - Controls whether to ignore if any specified indices are unavailable, this includes indices that don't exist or closed indices. Either `true` or `false` can be specified.
* `allow_no_indices` - Controls whether to fail if a wildcard indices expressions results into no concrete indices. Either `true` or `false` can be specified. For example if the wildcard expression `foo*` is specified and no indices are available that start with `foo` then depending on this setting the request will fail. This setting is also applicable when `_all`, `*` or no index has been specified.
* `expand_wildcards` - Controls to what kind of concrete indices wildcard indices expression expand to. If `open` is specified then the wildcard expression if expanded to only open indices and if `closed` is specified then the wildcard expression if expanded only to closed indices. Also both values (`open,closed`) can be specified to expand to all indices.
