I am setting up a small elasticsearch cluster and one of the nodes does not get any shards. It works, is part of the cluster - just empty (eu2
in the screenshot of head
below):
This node is a worker, the only difference in the configuration vs. the other nodes are the lines
node.master: false
node.data: true
Is there a specific action which needs to be taken in order to have it populated with shards?
eu2
get any shards then? Also, check the settings for the nodes (/_nodes
URL) to make sure they match and that shard allocation is enabled oneu2
.eu2
(it was lower that the others). Upgrading it immediately fixed the problem, thanks. If you cold turn your useful comment about moving shards into an answer I could accept it.
