• How do I start replicating one specific index from a remote Elasticsearch cluster?
• Can I wait until the follower index shards are active before the follow request returns?

Say it to your AI assistant

• Create follower index {index} that replicates leader index {leader_index} from remote cluster {remote_cluster}.
• Make {index} follow {leader_index} on {remote_cluster} and wait for {wait_for_active_shards} active shards.
