Updates the put SLM policy API's `config` parameter to reuse the create snapshot API's request body parameters.
Previously, the `config` parameter was missing the `feature_states` parameter. This change should keep the two docs in sync.
This PR returns the get snapshots API to the 7.x format (and transport client behavior) and enhances it for requests that ask for multiple repositories.
The changes for requests that target multiple repositories are:
* Add `repository` field to `SnapshotInfo` and REST response
* Add `failures` map alongside `snapshots` list instead of returning just an exception response as done for single repo requests
* Pagination now works across repositories instead of being per repository for multi-repository requests

Pagination and snapshots for get snapshots API, build on top of the current implementation to enable work that needs this API for testing. A follow-up will leverage the changes to make things more efficient via pagination.
Relates https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/pull/73570 which does part of the under-the-hood changes required to efficiently implement this API on the repository layer.
Both of these APIs don't parse request bodies, the parameters are all taken
from the query string. Also, included the master timeout param include
as it was missing here also.
Today the docs indicate that restoring a snapshot with
`include_global_state` set will merge the ingest pipelines, ILM
policies, settings etc in the snapshot with those already in the
cluster. This isn't the case, we simply replace all the things. This
commit corrects the docs.
We rely on the repository implementation correctly handling the case where a
write is aborted before it completes. This is not guaranteed for third-party
repositories.
This commit adds a rare action during analysis which aborts the write
just before it completes and verifies that the target blob is not found
by any node.
This commit adds some per-index statistics to the `SnapshotInfo` blob:
- number of shards
- total size in bytes
- maximum number of segments per shard
It also exposes these statistics in the get snapshot API.
The endpoint `_snapshottable_features` is long and implies incorrect
things about this API - it is used not just for snapshots, but also for
the upcoming reset API. Following discussions on the team, this commit
changes the endpoint to `_features` and removes the connection between
this API and snapshots, as snapshots are not the only use for the output
of this API.
Today we rely on blob stores behaving in a certain way so that they can be used
as a snapshot repository. There are an increasing number of third-party blob
stores that claim to be S3-compatible, but which may not offer a suitably
correct or performant implementation of the S3 API. We rely on somesubtle
semantics with concurrent readers and writers, but some blob stores may not
implement it correctly. Hitting a corner case in the implementation may be rare
in normal use, and may be hard to reproduce or to distinguish from an
Elasticsearch bug.
This commit introduces a new `POST /_snapshot/.../_analyse` API which exercises
the more problematic corners of the repository implementation looking for
correctness bugs and measures the details of the performance of the repository
under concurrent load.
This PR expands the meaning of `include_global_state` for snapshots to include system indices. If `include_global_state` is `true` on creation, system indices will be included in the snapshot regardless of the contents of the `indices` field. If `include_global_state` is `true` on restoration, system indices will be restored (if included in the snapshot), regardless of the contents of the `indices` field. Index renaming is not applied to system indices, as system indices rely on their names matching certain patterns. If restored system indices are already present, they are automatically deleted prior to restoration from the snapshot to avoid conflicts.
This behavior can be overridden to an extent by including a new field in the snapshot creation or restoration call, `feature_states`, which contains an array of strings indicating the "feature" for which system indices should be snapshotted or restored. For example, this call will only restore the `watcher` and `security` system indices (in addition to `index_1`):
```
POST /_snapshot/my_repository/snapshot_2/_restore
{
"indices": "index_1",
"include_global_state": true,
"feature_states": ["watcher", "security"]
}
```
If `feature_states` is present, the system indices associated with those features will be snapshotted or restored regardless of the value of `include_global_state`. All system indices can be omitted by providing a special value of `none` (`"feature_states": ["none"]`), or included by omitting the field or explicitly providing an empty array (`"feature_states": []`), similar to the `indices` field.
The list of currently available features can be retrieved via a new "Get Snapshottable Features" API:
```
GET /_snapshottable_features
```
which returns a response of the form:
```
{
"features": [
{
"name": "tasks",
"description": "Manages task results"
},
{
"name": "kibana",
"description": "Manages Kibana configuration and reports"
}
]
}
```
Features currently map one-to-one with `SystemIndexPlugin`s, but this should be considered an implementation detail. The Get Snapshottable Features API and snapshot creation rely upon all relevant plugins being installed on the master node.
Further, the list of feature states included in a given snapshot is exposed by the Get Snapshot API, which now includes a new field, `feature_states`, which contains a list of the feature states and their associated system indices which are included in the snapshot. All system indices in feature states are also included in the `indices` array for backwards compatibility, although explicitly requesting system indices included in a feature state is deprecated. For example, an excerpt from the Get Snapshot API showing `feature_states`:
```
"feature_states": [
{
"feature_name": "tasks",
"indices": [
".tasks"
]
}
],
"indices": [
".tasks",
"test1",
"test2"
]
```

Today a snapshot repository does not have a well-defined identity. It
can be reregistered with a different cluster under a different name, and
can even be registered with multiple clusters in readonly mode.
This presents problems for cases where we need to refer to a specific
snapshot in a globally-unique fashion. Today we rely on the repository
being registered under the same name on every cluster, but this is not a
safe assumption.
This commit adds a UUID that can be used to uniquely identify a
repository. The UUID is stored in the top-level index blob, represented
by `RepositoryData`, and is also usually copied into the
`RepositoryMetadata` that represents the repository in the cluster
state. The repository UUID is exposed in the get-repositories API; other
more meaningful consumers will be added in due course.
* Adding new page for restore snapshot API.
* Improving test cases, lots of edits, and streamlining content.
* Incorporating review suggestions and feedback.
* Specify `index alias` vs `alias`
* Change parameter order
* Provide clarity around regular expression
* Add link to SLM parameters
* Split sentences in example
* Adding link to master node page.
The clock resolution for this API is our default 200ms. It is unlikely but
possible that a shard snapshot starts and ends on separate clock ticks and that breaks the test.
Just allowing any value here seems fine to me (seems we can't match for integer specifically).
* Updating snapshot/restore pages to align with API changes.
* Fixing texts in delete snapshot page.
* Removing duplicate code sample and making editorial changes.
* Change "deleted" to "delete"
* Incorporating review feedback and making minor editorial changes.
* Remove titleabbrev
* Add paragraph break
* Remove titleabbrev from restore page
* Remove titleabbrev from create page
* Change "Create" to lowercase
* Change API names to lowercase
* Remove extraneous delimiters
* Change "Delete" to lowercase
* Single-sourcing warning and clarifying warning text.
We can't just assume a fixed number for the overall file count.
Depending on how the merging/flushing works out we won't always have
4 files for the index across all versions, systems etc.
Also, we could have x-pack concurrently create some system indices
which could mess up the total numbers here.
Fixed by only snapshotting a single index+shard in the snapshot that
we get the status for and verifying consistency instead of equality
for total file counts.
Closes#59767

* We now have concurrent repository operations so the one at a time limit does not apply any longer
* Initialization was never slow solely due to loading information about all existing snaphots (though this contributed)
but also because two cluster state updates and a few writes to the repository had to happen before initialization could return
