That's usual behavior. Allow sometime for all the ticks to go green after successful bucket replication.

@sathwikr076 - Did it resolve on its own? accept / upvote my answer if it helped.

Hi, I am sorry. there were few indexes which are removed from the indexes.conf but they are not done properly. when one indexer got restart the cluster master started searching for those missing indexes which caused the peers status to be pending.

[nareshinsvu]

Bit unclear. So, did you manage to recover the indexes,conf on master and pushed it to indexers?

[sathwikr076]

we opened a case with splunk support and they cleaned the indexes which are no configured properly and did a rolling restart. After that everything was ok.
