Basically you can't do with no stop at all. ES holds indexes open so that 
it can access the data quickly. You could close the index, copy the data 
and then open the index again but it is probably best to stop es, move the 
data, change the data path and then start es again. You can have multiple 
data paths so that you can skip the copying but you need to restart es.
