Hello,
I have trouble starting Kibana on one of our agents of a test cluster.
Did anyone already encountered this and how can we fix this?

Hi Klaas,

The issue is not DataMiner related, but is related to the process stopping while still being busy with the migration. Elastic locks this index to protect itself, but this causes Kibana to not be accessible anymore.

You can fix this by deleting the locked .kibana_1 index. As you cannot do this in Kibana, you can send the delete query via git bash (right click on a random folder - Git Bash Here) and send the following query:

curl -XDELETE http://[YOURIP]:9200/.kibana_1
