hi,  
i cant make the clustering work, ive staticly defined:  
_cluster.name: elasti-flow_  
_node.name: node-1_ on one of the nodes,  
and _node.name: node-2_ on the other.  
_discovery.seed\_hosts: ["10.60.35.252", "10.60.35.253"]_ on both of them  
_cluster.initial\_master\_nodes: ["node-1", "node-2"]_ on both of them  
these are the logs on node-1:

> [2019-07-22T16:57:08,039][WARN][o.e.c.c.ClusterFormationFailureHelper] [node-1] master not discovered yet: have discovered [{node-2}{3--epaJ6QcaO0wM6V1SBeQ}{PDnjc5kARJOkQL7MVEPFoQ}{10.60.35.253}{10.60.35.253:9300}{ml.machine\_memory=67334033408, ml.max\_open\_jobs=20, xpack.installed=true}]; discovery will continue using [10.60.35.253:9300] from hosts providers and [{node-1}{u7vVY0q2TnCTYMxRtcqI5w}{mc2LrDRCQaqH-vmSPa9Apg}{10.60.35.252}{10.60.35.252:9300}{ml.machine\_memory=67334029312, xpack.installed=true, ml.max\_open\_jobs=20}] from last-known cluster state; node term 0, last-accepted version 0 in term 0

and the log on node-2:

> [2019-07-22T17:04:07,306][WARN][o.e.c.c.ClusterFormationFailureHelper] [node-2] master not discovered yet, this node has not previously joined a bootstrapped (v7+) cluster, and this node must discover master-eligible nodes [node-1, node-2] to bootstrap a cluster: have discovered ; discovery will continue using [10.60.35.252:9300] from hosts providers and [{node-2}{3--epaJ6QcaO0wM6V1SBeQ}{PDnjc5kARJOkQL7MVEPFoQ}{10.60.35.253}{10.60.35.253:9300}{ml.machine\_memory=67334033408, xpack.installed=true, ml.max\_open\_jobs=20}] from last-known cluster state; node term 0, last-accepted version 0 in term 0

i have connectivity between them, i can curl port 9200 to each other.

`node-1` is not master-eligible (i.e. has `node.master: false`) but it is listed in `cluster.initial_master_nodes`. Either make it master-eligible or remove it from `cluster.initial_master_nodes`.
