"When I try to restore indices from manual snapshots in Amazon OpenSearch Service, the restoration fails with an error message. How do I resolve this?ResolutionAmazon OpenSearch Service monitors the .kibana index and recreates the index when it's deleted. This behavior can cause the restoration to fail with the following error message:{    "error": {        "root_cause": [{            "type": "snapshot_restore_exception",            "reason": "[repository-name:snapshot-name/1A2B34aZQFWQpFOYYJfxmQ] cannot restore index [.kibana] because an open index with same name already exists in the cluster. Either close or delete the existing index or restore the index under a different name by providing a rename pattern and replacement name"        }],        "type": "snapshot_restore_exception",        "reason": "[repository-name:snapshot-name/1A2B34aZQFWQpFOYYJfxmQ] cannot restore index [.kibana] because an open index with same name already exists in the cluster. Either close or delete the existing index or restore the index under a different name by providing a rename pattern and replacement name"    },    "status": 500}To resolve this issue, perform the following steps:1.    Restore the indices and rename the .kibana index, like this:# restore indices.   $ curl -XPOST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' 'https://your-domain-end-point/_snapshot/your-repository-name/your-snapshot-name/_restore' -d'{    "indices": "*",    "ignore_unavailable": true,    "include_global_state": true,    "rename_pattern": ".kibana",    "rename_replacement": "restored_.kibana"}In this example, the .kibana index is renamed to "restored_.kibana".2.    Use the _reindex API operation to rename "restored_.kibana" back to ".kibana", like this:# reindex restored_.kibana to .kibana $ curl -XPOST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' 'https://your-domain-end-point/_reindex' -d'{    "source": {        "index": "restored_.kibana"    },    "dest": {        "index": ".kibana"    }}You can now restore your indices from a manual snapshot.Follow"
