Adding node locally for dev on macos

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

I'm trying to run a local dev cluster with two nodes. I know ideally three is recommended but I'm troubleshooting the network errors that I'm getting. I may be confusing myself with the transport ssl certs for the cluster. However, I copied the master cert-stack and shared it to data node that I'm adding to the cluster. In the docs states you could create cert per node but in a cluster, master node provisions the security for cluster of nodes. Hence, security xpack would then be false and perhaps isn't a best security practice to share the master-cert-stack with data node in production. There error that I'm getting is (master node)

[node-ma] failed to validate incoming join request from node [{node-1-dev}{_tMuNjv3RA2pOxhDe6ykjQ}{g0-XxZVUQx-dYNm_YF1kpQ}{localhost}{127.0.0.1:9301}{xpack.installed=true}]

Ok I have fixed this. The problem was that I did not add to the elasticsearch.yml

  network.host: _local_ 
  cluster.initial_master_nodes: ["node-ma"]
  discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts:["localhost"]
  xpack.security.enabled: true

and cp cert from master to data-node

for the master node I removed the discovery and changed network_host: local , commented out transport.tcp.port, discovery.zen.minimum_master_nodes: 1 didn't need it for a two node anything 3 nodes or bigger will need this settings
for local dev discovery is local by default

This was for testing purposes to keep the cost of dev to a bare minimum while learning. The dev was local.
