wait_intervaledit

This setting is used by the allocation, cluster_routing, reindex, replicas, restore, and snapshot actions.

This setting must be a positive integer between 1 and 30.

This setting specifies how long to wait between checks to see if the action has completed or not. This number should not be larger than the client timeout or the timeout_override. As the default client timeout value for is 30, this should be uncommon.

The default value for this setting is 9, meaning 9 seconds between checks.

This option is generally used in conjunction with max_wait, which is the maximum amount of time in seconds to wait for the given action to complete.
