I ve installed elastic 8.5.x with xpack on kubernates (bitnami). At the begining it works well.

Somehow it crashed after one month (nearly) then when i looked error it says

failed to retrieve password hash for reserver user [elastic] at least one primary shard for the index [.security-7] is unavailable?

I tried reset password and setup password but it doesnt response because the masters are not up. It gives above error.

I disabled xpack and restar cluster then it works as expected. ( i saw .security-7 index and its green like all others and cluster health)

but when i try setup password interactive it gives xpack disable error and try reset password -u elastic -i it gives error.

Also when i re try xpack enable with beginning masters it gives same error.

What i dont understand ;

When i enable xpack why it needs to read .security-7 index , because i just want to leverage master nodes only then i want to start others.

How can i handle this issue?
