Many clusters? Many nodes?
Many clusters: just change cluster.name in config/elasticsearch.yml
Many nodes?
Start new nodes on the same LAN and they will discover others.
Or use Unicast settings (see comments in elasticsearch.yml file)

Thank you David for your answer, but my concern is how to modfy the
config/elasticsearch.yml file to define several cluster:
Is it this format:
cluster.name = cluster1, cluster2
thanks in adavnce.

No. One node belong to one and only one cluster.
What are you trying to achieve here?

I am trying to connect ES to another tool. It is said in the documentation
that each instance of this tool should be connected to 1 cluster.
That's why I need to define many cluster.

Sorry. I can't help more here. Perhaps you should contact the team of the _other_ tool?
