This could be due to network issues, insufficient permissions, or disk space issues. To resolve this, you can try restarting the OpenSearch node, checking network connectivity, ensuring the node has sufficient permissions to access the data directory, or freeing up disk space. If the issue persists, consider deleting the dangled index if it’s not needed.
