Hi, My ElasticSearch cluster is running on Windows platform. Last weekend, one of the nodes in the cluster went down due to timeout (network issue). When network issue was solved, I had to manually restart the node to join back the cluster. Question: Is there any mechanism/script which can join back the "recovered" node to cluster automatically? I am thinking how we can reduce the administrative work. Thanks. Lee Chuen -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
