Dockerized ES Cluster multi node with one container/VM Problems

DBond · May 7, 2020, 5:00pm

Dear Experts,

Anybody has experience on how to have secured ES cluster with multi nodes, that each node is running on a docker container, and each docker container runs on a VM ?
For example:
VM1/DC1/N1 : ES1 and Kibana
VM1/DC2/N2 : ES2
VM2/DC3/N3 : ES3

Elasticsearch 7.6
Kibana 7.6

All three nodes are master-eligible, data and ingest Node.
Issues:

They are not see each other, so cannot form a cluster (the same for all nodes)

{"type": "server", "timestamp": "2020-05-07T16:42:06,945Z", "level": "WARN", "component": "o.e.c.c.ClusterFormationFailureHelper", "cluster.name": "clues01", "node.name": "dev.net", "message": "master not discovered or elected yet, an election requires 2 nodes with ids [ThXscQCwR6q2tRq0tGDlug, tgypkDqVS_-x5_1_DXmp9Q], have discovered [{dev..net}{ThXscQCwR6q2tRq0tGDlug}{3eWMA9Q7QVy14Joe_RMwVA}{XX.YY.ZZ.162}{XX.YY.ZZ.162:9300}{dim}{xpack.installed=true}] which is not a quorum; discovery will continue using [XX.YY.ZZ.189:9300, XX.YY.ZZ.189:9300] from hosts providers and [{dev.net}{ThXscQCwR6q2tRq0tGDlug}{3eWMA9Q7QVy14Joe_RMwVA}{XX.YY.ZZ.162}{XX.YY.ZZ.162:9300}{dim}{xpack.installed=true}] from last-known cluster state; node term 0, last-accepted version 0 in term 0" }

Kibana doesn't start ()

 {"type":"log","@timestamp":"2020-05-07T16:44:58Z","tags":["warning","elasticsearch","admin"],"pid":6,"message":"No living connections"}
        {"type":"log","@timestamp":"2020-05-07T16:44:59Z","tags":["warning","elasticsearch","data"],"pid":6,"message":"Unable to revive connection: https://playground.net:9200/"}

I can get the es status, seems okay, but with cluster_uuid : "na"

{
      "name" : "playground.net",
      "cluster_name" : "clues01",
      "cluster_uuid" : "_na_",
      "version" : {
        "number" : "7.6.0",
        "build_flavor" : "default",
        "build_type" : "docker",
        "build_hash" : "7f634e9f44834fbc12724506cc1da681b0c3b1e3",
        "build_date" : "2020-02-06T00:09:00.449973Z",
        "build_snapshot" : false,
        "lucene_version" : "8.4.0",
        "minimum_wire_compatibility_version" : "6.8.0",
        "minimum_index_compatibility_version" : "6.0.0-beta1"
      },
      "tagline" : "You Know, for Search"
    }

Does it make sense at all to hope that this config will work? lost a lot of hair already
