Configuring YML files Location

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi,

I am trying to setup the configuration of ES (elasticsearch.yml and
logging.yml) outside of the elasticsearch package. I have put the two files
in a separate location and pointed the CONF_DIR to that location. I launch
the ES server by specifying the cluster name and node name.

The problem I am seeing is that this configuration is not getting
picked-up. I verified this by checking the logs files. The log files get
updated when I have the yml config files in the ES directory. But when I
move them out, the logs don't get updated.

Any pointers on how to get configure the yml files location outside of the
ES package ?

Thanks,
Karthik Jayanthi

For example, I keep my Elasticsearch configurations for use with the ELK
stack within this directory:

/opt/config/elk/current

So my start-up script calls the elasticsearch command as follows:

$ES_HOME/elasticsearch -d ... -Des.path.conf=/opt/config/elk/current ...

Hope this helps!

Brian
