-====== Tested on ======
+==== Delete all indices ====
-  *
+  curl -X DELETE 'http://localhost:9200/_all'
+===== Create snapshot =====
+Register repo first:
+<code>
+curl -X PUT -u undefined:$ESPASS "localhost:9200/_snapshot/es_backup?pretty" -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d'
+{
+  "type": "fs",
+  "settings": {
+    "location": "es_backup"
+  }
+}
+'
+</code>
+Instead of creating new repo, you can use the default_backup repo if you want.
+Create first backup
+  curl -X PUT "localhost:9200/_snapshot/es_backup/ztest?wait_for_completion=true&pretty"
+<WRAP center round tip 60%>
+To create single index snapshot use
+<code>
+curl -X PUT "localhost:9200/_snapshot/default_backup/myindex_backup?wait_for_completion=true&pretty" -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d'
+{
+  "indices": "coolindex"
+}'
+</code>
+</WRAP>
+The backup folder is created in ///opt/backup/elasticsearch///.
+You can now zip this and transfer to another server.
+===== List snapshots =====
+  curl -s -X GET "localhost:9200/_snapshot"
+  curl -s -X GET "localhost:9200/_snapshot/es_backup/*?pretty=true"
+===== Restore snapshot =====
+If you have an archive, unarchive it to ///opt/backup/elasticsearch///, e.g.
+  tar xvf /tmp/es_backup.tar.gz -C /opt/backup/elasticsearch/es_backup
+When you transfer it to another server unzip it, make sure that the owner is elasticsearch on the folder and then create the snapshot repository with command above, otherwise you won't see it when trying to list the snaphots.
+List the snapshots with above command.
+After this do the restore with snapshot name you want:
+  curl -s -X POST "localhost:9200/_snapshot/es_backup/snapshot-12/_restore"
+<WRAP center round tip 60%>
+To restore single index use
+<code>
+curl -s -X POST "localhost:9200/_snapshot/myes_bak/snapshot-2023-01-11/_restore" -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d'
+{
+  "indices": "niceindex"
+}'
+</code>
+</WRAP>
+If you get an [[https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/issues/78320|error]] that an index exist, like with the system index ''.geoip_databases'', you can restore the system indices from the snapshot as well with
+  curl -s -X POST "localhost:9200/_snapshot/es_backup/snapshot-12/_restore" -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d \
+  '{
+  "include_global_state": true
+  }'
