2-node cluster debian

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
#1

Hello,
I try to build 2-node cluster but it doesn't work. I have installed bitnami-elk-7.9.1-0-linux-debian-10-x86_64-nami.ova , I made two nodes:
debian-01: 192.168.11.96, and debian-02: 192.168.11.97
configuration file elasticsearch.yml:

http.port: 9200
path.data: /opt/bitnami/elasticsearch/data
transport.tcp.port: 9300
action.destructive_requires_name: true
network.host: 192.168.11.96
network.bind_host: 0.0.0.0
network.publish_host: 192.168.11.96
cluster.name: Cluster
node.name: debian-01          //second node debian-02
discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts: ["192.168.11.96", "192.168.11.97"]
discovery.initial_state_timeout: 5m
gateway.recover_after_nodes: 1
gateway.expected_nodes: 1
cluster.initial_master_nodes: ["192.168.11.96", "192.168.11.97"]
node.master: true
node.data: true
node.ingest: false

I have tried different configurations and still don't work. Can somebody help me and correct the configuration file?

What do you mean by that?

#3

I have tried something like these:

discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts: ["192.168.11.96", "192.168.11.97"]
or
discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts: ["debian-01", "debian-02"]

cluster.initial_master_nodes: ["192.168.11.96", "192.168.11.97"]
or
cluster.initial_master_nodes: 192.168.11.96, 192.168.11.97
or
cluster.initial_master_nodes: debian-01, debian-02

and it doesn't work.
Anyway, maybe you have some example how to properly configure cluster, if yes share with me if you want.

#4

Ok, but please be more explicit.
Can you share logs?

#5

I removed these lines from configuration file:

gateway.recover_after_nodes: 1
gateway.expected_nodes: 1

and it works like it should.
