[Elsewhere](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/control-over-writing-data-to-a-specific-drive/271695/5) you are asking about a design in which you have multiple disks, and therefore multiple nodes, all running on a single host, so I think you don't have a single-node cluster as you claim here. In that case the watermarks all work as documented to move shards around to ensure that no node's disk gets too full.
