Restart cluster

edit

This endpoint is deprecated and scheduled to be removed in the next major version. Use restart Elasticsearch resource instead.

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.
