I'm hoping to use Snapshot/Restore to shelter our production cluster from the load entailed from reindexing our indices. I'd be interested in knowing whether this is something it would provide or if analysis would be involved either way. We have a dataset that we'd like to index without worry of affecting queries. We could throttle indexing to reduce effect but this has proved to be a difficult endeavour. I'd prefer that any cpu intensive ops occur away from production. How do others deal with this scenario?
Our other option would be to maintain two clusters and switch between the two. To maintain would mean quite an investment in hardware and I'd prefer to look at other options first. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
