curator - no permissions for cluster:admin/snapshot/restore

You have two options here:

- User curator with ssl client authentication and run it with an admin certificate (like sgadmin) but we had seen problems with this approach: https://github.com/floragunncom/search-guard/issues/196
- We are working currently on this feature (pull requests 245 and 257) and here is preliminary version for ES 2.3.3. which includes PR #245 https://gist.github.com/floragunncom/fe1f5d88837b1e3d96db82a844f75bf7
This approach does not (yet) allow to restore the global state! Do you really need that?

Hi,

We are currently evaluating Search Guard to replace Shield.
We still have one blocking point:

We are able to generate some snapshots using curator.
We are able to restore from these snapshots using a CURL request.
But, we are not able to restore using curator. It always fail with the following error:

2017-03-01 09:53:38,206 INFO Preparing Action ID: 1, "restore"
2017-03-01 09:53:38,295 INFO Trying Action ID: 1, "restore": Restore all indices in the most recent snapshot-* snapshot with state SUCCESS. Wait for the restore to complete before continuing. Do not skip the repository filesystem access check. Use the other options to define the index/shard settings for the restore.
2017-03-01 09:53:38,515 INFO Restoring indices "['.kibana', 'searchguard']" from snapshot: snapshot-20170301090739
2017-03-01 09:53:38,532 ERROR Failed to complete action: restore. <class 'curator.exceptions.FailedExecution'>: Exception encountered. Rerun with loglevel DEBUG and/or check Elasticsearch logs for more information. Exception: TransportError(403, 'security_exception', 'no permissions for cluster:admin/snapshot/restore')

We are using:
- ES 2.3.3
- search-guard-2 2.3.3.11
- search-guard-ssl 2.3.3.20

We have used example PKI scripts to generate keys & self signed certificate

Using curl to restore is working:
cat /data/elasticsearch/cert/admin.crt.pem /data/elasticsearch/cert/ca/chain-ca.pem > /tmp/ch.pem
curl -Ss --insecure -XPOST -E /tmp/ch.pem --key /data/elasticsearch/cert/admin.key.pem 'https://dev-ct-elasticsearch01:9200/_snapshot/backup_repository/snapshot-20170223104445/_restore?pretty&#39;

But curator fails to do the same:
curator --config /tmp/curator.yml /etc/curator.restore.yml
2017-03-01 09:53:38,532 ERROR Failed to complete action: restore. <class 'curator.exceptions.FailedExecution'>: Exception encountered. Rerun with loglevel DEBUG and/or check Elasticsearch logs for more information. Exception: TransportError(403, 'security_exception', 'no permissions for cluster:admin/snapshot/restore')

How can I get ride of this error?
What did I miss in curator config?

Here are the curator yml files:

curator.yml:
client:
  hosts: [dev-ct-elasticsearch04]
  port: 9200
  url_prefix:
  use_ssl: true
  certificate:
  client_cert: /tmp/ch.pem
  client_key:

  aws_secret_key:

  ssl_no_validate: true

  timeout:
  master_only: False
logging:
  loglevel: INFO
  logfile: /var/log/curator.log
  logformat: default
  blacklist: ['elasticsearch', 'urllib3']

curator.restore.yml:

    action: restore

    options:
      repository: backup_repository

      skip_repo_fs_check: False
      timeout_override:

      disable_action: false
    filters:
    - filtertype: pattern
      kind: prefix
      value: snapshot-
      exclude:
    - filtertype: state
      state: SUCCESS
      exclude:

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Patrick
