How to fix it

To create a new Elasticsearch domain with encryption at-rest enabled, follow these steps:

  1. Open the Amazon Elasticsearch Service console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/es/.
  2. Choose 'Create a new domain'.
  3. Configure the domain as needed for your use case.
  4. In the 'Set the domain access policy' section, ensure that 'Encryption at rest' is set to 'Enabled'.
  5. Configure any other settings as necessary and choose 'Create'.
  6. After the domain is created, migrate your data from the old domain to the new domain with encryption at-rest enabled.
