Backup and restore an Elastic search index (shamelessly copied from http://tech.superhappykittymeow.com/?p=296)

# herein we backup our indexes! this script should run at like 6pm or something, after logstash
# rotates to a new ES index and theres no new data coming in to the old one. we grab metadatas,
# compress the data files, create a restore script, and push it all up to S3.

Setting up XEN on a Hetzner Dedicated Server

Setting up XEN on a Hetzner Dedicated Server

Author: Michael van Rooijen (@mrrooijen)

DISCLAIMER: I am a programmer, not a sysadmin in my day-to-day life. I provide this guide simply as a self-reference, and as a way to contribute to the community of developers. The main motivation for writing this guide is because of the lack of properly written guides/tutorials. They were either out-dated, inaccurate, in a non-English language or simply too vague to understand (at least for me, as a programmer and not a sysadmin).

I hope this guide helps getting you up and running with your own collection of VPS's on your own Dedicated Server over at Hetzner.de.
