Creates a new follower index configured to follow the referenced leader index Added in 6.5.0
Path parameters
-
The name of the follower index.
Query parameters
-
wait_for_active_shards number | string
Specifies the number of shards to wait on being active before responding. This defaults to waiting on none of the shards to be active. A shard must be restored from the leader index before being active. Restoring a follower shard requires transferring all the remote Lucene segment files to the follower index.
Body Required
-
data_stream_name string
If the leader index is part of a data stream, the name to which the local data stream for the followed index should be renamed.
-
The maximum number of outstanding reads requests from the remote cluster.
-
The maximum number of outstanding write requests on the follower.
-
The maximum number of operations to pull per read from the remote cluster.
max_read_request_size number | string
-
max_retry_delay string
A duration. Units can be
nanos
,micros
,ms
(milliseconds),s
(seconds),m
(minutes),h
(hours) andd
(days). Also accepts "0" without a unit and "-1" to indicate an unspecified value. -
max_write_buffer_count number
The maximum number of operations that can be queued for writing. When this limit is reached, reads from the remote cluster will be deferred until the number of queued operations goes below the limit.
max_write_buffer_size number | string
-
The maximum number of operations per bulk write request executed on the follower.
max_write_request_size number | string
-
read_poll_timeout string
A duration. Units can be
nanos
,micros
,ms
(milliseconds),s
(seconds),m
(minutes),h
(hours) andd
(days). Also accepts "0" without a unit and "-1" to indicate an unspecified value. -
The remote cluster containing the leader index.
-
settings object
Additional properties are allowed.
