Hi, My ES Version -- 0.90.2
1) I used to have a 3 node ES cluster where I had 5 shard indices. I used to have around 1000 shards (all primary as it was running with 0 replica). 2) Then I change the replica to 1 and add 3 additional nodes hoping the shards will get evenly balanced with a replica. However what I found is that all new indices are getting created with replica (So in total 10 shards per index) but the old indices stayed as is. They did not get replicated. So my new nodes are fairly empty whereas the old nodes shards are growing as new indices are getting created. *How can I re-balance the cluster so that I my shards are evenly balanced and the old indices also gets replicated?* Now I am facing another problem, while I index new data the cluster suddenly drops few shards to unassigned and goes to Red, however it pick up and reassigns on its own. But this keeps happening pretty often. Not sure what could be the cause. Would appreciate your guidence here.
