Hey Guys
I'm currently building up a test environment for HPE ALM Octane for my company. This Application uses Elasticsearch. Now I have the problem, that I can't start my elasticsearchserver and I'm a bit at the end of my nerves ;).
Cause Octane works with elasticsearch version 2.4.0, I'm also forced to work with this version.
I get the following Error:
elasticsearch.service - Elasticsearch
_ Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/elasticsearch.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled)_

Feb 21 09:40:50 linux-rfw5 systemd[1]: elasticsearch.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.
I configured the absolute minimum, that is possible. My Configurations:
- elasticsearch.yml (/etc/elasticsearch/)
1.1 cluster.name: octane_test
1.2 node.name: elasticNode
1.3 network.host: 127.0.0.1 (yes localhost, cause I'm running the octane server on the same host)
1.4 http.port: 9200 - elasticsearch (/etc/sysconfig/)
2.1 ES_HEAP_SIZE=4g (4 GB is 50% of the maximum memory)
I appreciate your help 
Joel
