=== Migration Assistance API
|
|
|
|
The Migration Assistance API analyzes existing indices in the cluster and returns the information
|
|
about indices that require some changes before the cluster can be upgraded to the next major version.
|
|
|
|
To see a list of indices that needs to be upgraded or reindexed, submit a GET request to the
|
|
`/_xpack/migration/assistance` endpoint:
|
|
|
|
[source,js]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
GET /_xpack/migration/assistance
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
// CONSOLE
|
|
// TEST[skip:cannot create an old index in docs test]
|
|
|
|
A successful call returns a list of indices that need to updated or reindexed:
|
|
|
|
[source,js]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
{
|
|
"indices" : {
|
|
".watches" : {
|
|
"action_required" : "upgrade"
|
|
},
|
|
".security" : {
|
|
"action_required" : "upgrade"
|
|
},
|
|
"my_old_index": {
|
|
"action_required" : "reindex"
|
|
},
|
|
"my_other_old_index": {
|
|
"action_required" : "reindex"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
// NOTCONSOLE
|
|
|
|
To check a particular index or set of indices, specify this index name or mask as the last part of the
|
|
`/_xpack/migration/assistance/index_name` endpoint:
|
|
|
|
[source,js]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
GET /_xpack/migration/assistance/my_*
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
// CONSOLE
|
|
// TEST[skip:cannot create an old index in docs test]
|
|
|
|
A successful call returns a list of indices that needs to updated or reindexed and match the index specified
|
|
on the endpoint:
|
|
|
|
[source,js]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
{
|
|
"indices" : {
|
|
"my_old_index": {
|
|
"action_required" : "reindex"
|
|
},
|
|
"my_other_old_index": {
|
|
"action_required" : "reindex"
|
|
}
|
|
}
