Also the backup files seem to still be there:

Permissions look good, I wonder if you're hitting a memory throttle.

Could you post your curator log for us to look at? /usr/local/nagioslogserver/var/jobs.log

This logfile seem to be empty. I tried running the command again, but I got the same result.

I suspect one of the snapshots is corrupted or there's some bad metadata being kept about the snapshots in general.

Let's see the outputs of:

Code: Select all

curator --debug snapshot --repository Backup indices --older-than 1 --time-unit days --timestring %Y.%m.%d
curl -XGET "http://localhost:9200/_snapshot/Backup/_all?pretty"

I attached the output of the first line, the second line output is below:

Code: Select all

# curl -XGET "http://localhost:9200/_snapshot/Backup/_all?pretty"
{
  "error" : "ElasticsearchParseException[Failed to derive xcontent from (offset=0, length=0): []]",
  "status" : 400
}

It definitely looks like the repository contains corrupted data.

I would suggest creating a fresh repository and scheduling a snapshot. If that snapshot succeeds against the fresh repository, then this confirms my suspicions. If the snapshot still fails against a fresh repository, I would like to see a fresh copy of the elasticsearch logs (/var/log/elasticsearch/*.log).

How do I create a fresh snapshot? Should I just delete the files on the backup folder like I did before?
