Restart cluster

IMPORTANT: This documentation is no longer updated. Refer to Elastic's version policy and the latest documentation.

Restart cluster

edit

Restarts the Elasticsearch cluster. When you restart an active cluster, the existing plan is used and a cluster_reboot is applied. A cluster_reboot issues an Elasticsearch restart command, then waits for the command to complete. When you restart an inactive cluster, the most recent successful plan is applied.
