Rolling Restart (Deprecated)

Function

This API is used to perform a rolling restart on a specific type of nodes in an Elasticsearch or OpenSearch cluster.

Constraints

  • Rolling restart is supported only when there are more than three nodes (including Master nodes, Client nodes, and cold data nodes) in the cluster. When the cluster is available, ensure that the cluster has stopped processing service data (such as importing and searching for data). Otherwise, data may be lost during cluster restart. During the rolling restart, you need to wait until the restarted nodes are added to the cluster and the index status changes to green. If there are a large number of indexes, the restart takes a long time.

Calling Method
