How to Pause Elasticsearch in Elastic Cloud?

Question

Unable to pause Elasticsearch instance in Elastic Cloud. In Documentation, It is mention for pause but unable to get any option on Elastic Cloud Console.

Documentation Link :- https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/cloud-enterprise/1.0/ece-maintenance-mode-clusters.html

Answer 1

The documentation you refer to is not the Elastic Cloud documentation but the Elastic Cloud Enterprise (ECE) documentation, which is the underlying product that Elastic uses to operate Elastic Cloud.

It is not possible to directly pause instances from the Elastic Cloud Console UI. You can only stop routing requests to a given node by clicking on the three dots at the top right of your node.
