This is the important message. > system call filters failed to install; check the logs and fix your configuration or disable system call filters at your own risk See [System call filter check | Elasticsearch Guide [7.9] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/7.9/_system_call_filter_check.html) - you should not try to disable but find the source why the process is not allowed to install a seccomp policy on startup. I vaguely remember, that another user had mounted the tmp directory as noexec and claimed that that was the issue. Not sure this is the case here. Is that the case in your setup? ---

Nope, i don't have any mount point. But when i disabled bootstrap.system\_call\_filter Its start working 🙂 Is that any issues if i disabled bootstrap.system\_call\_filter ?? ---

Yes, see the documentation, it's disabling an important security feature. ---
