Hi ,
I have a master node running on VM with single cluster and I am trying to add the master eligible node from openshift pod. When I try to join the cluster , getting below error. I can do curl to reach from openshift pod to master node via port 9200 and 9300.
My elasticsearch.yml file in pod is
cluster.name: gama
network.host: 0.0.0.0
discovery.seed\_hosts: ["10.91.159.116"]
cluster.initial\_master\_nodes: ["10.91.159.116"]
node.store.allow\_mmap: false

Can the master node connect to the new node? Both nodes need to be able to connect to each other on port 9300.
