==== {api-description-title}
When a frozen index is unfrozen, the index goes through the normal recovery
process and becomes writeable again. See <<frozen-indices>> and <<freeze-index-api>>.
IMPORTANT: Freezing an index will close the index and reopen it within the same
API call. This causes primaries to not be allocated for a short amount of time
and causes the cluster to go red until the primaries are allocated again. This
limitation might be removed in the future.
