Hi
We have elastic search setup on docker swarm.
The elastic search data nodes automatically restarted, but all the nodes did not up and running, then, we did manual retstart ( portainer)
But now we are getting an dangling link error, how to over this issue, please help on this issue.
I tried verify this on each data nodes ( we have 3 data nodes) :
curl 'localhost:9200/\_cat/indices?v'
it listed the indices..
then in the /data/nodes/ folder there is nothing is present
Is this behavior is as expected or any thing i have to do, to avoid the dangling error ???

In continuation to above, i see that all the uuid folders are present in the /data/node/0/indices folder.
Now can you tell me, how to get rid of dangling indices issue.
In the logs it says: 'dangling index exists on local file system but not in cluster metadata auto import to cluster state'
and in the next line
'can not be imported as a dangling index, as index with same name already exists in cluster metadata'

Welcome to our community! 😃
Can you post the Elasticsearch log? What version are you on?

Hi,
The elastic search version is 6.4.0.
As due to security reason i could not copy the logs.
But i will try to give series of steps carried out,
As due to some reason the nodes got restarted - root cause - NEED TO KNOW, why this has happened (we will come to this later)
But during the auto restart, all the nodes did not come up... we noticed that through ElasticHQ, then we restarted the elastic master and data nodes manually. Now all the nodes are up and running.
Later while applications started search, one of the application continuously getting the following series of warnings:
can not be imported as a dangling index, as index with same name already exists in cluster metadata,
and
dangling index exists on local file system, but not in cluster metadata, auto import to cluster state,
Hope this helps to get idea on this issue.
As such there is error at node level.. i Just wanted to understand.
1. In what situation the nodes get restarted - Need to avoid in future occurences
2. How to avoid the dangling indexs

Without logs this is going to be very hard to troubleshoot, we can only provide generic advice.

Either Elasticsearch is running or it is not, and nodes will not just restart themselves. So a process or a person has actively restarted Elasticsearch for some reason.

This is usually the result of other issues, such as a node leaving the cluster for a long time and then rejoining.

Hi,
Which node logs would help, i mean, we have different nodes like: master, host, data, and UI, please let me know, i will try to get the logs.
At the moment we are getting the dangling error, how to fix that??
Can you please guide the steps for the same.

The master logs and the logs from the node that has the dangling index.

You seem to have a node dropping in and out.
How many shards and indices do you have in your cluster?
