Hi All,

I am novice to Elastic search. We had installed ES with Jetty service  
for our own developing software and working on it. And we haven't get  
clear idea about creating scenarios for testing the Elastic search  
with 2 node, 3 node ,4 node, 5 node with 1, 2 ,3 shards based process.  
If anybody knows about this, please help me out by giving your inputs  
to this.

Thanks,

Meenkshi

I need it very badly, but no one comes forward to solve / respond to  
my query.

Hi,

I think your question sounds too general. First, Elasticsearch does not need  
web container (I am not sure I am getting your point about Jetty, can you  
provide more details about how you use it with Jetty?).  
If you need to start more then one nodes then simply start a new  
Elasticsearch instance. If network configured properly then new instance  
should find already running master and join into the cluster. Number of  
shards is index level configuration so it is defined at the time index is  
created in the cluster.

I think it would be useful if you can share more details about what exactly  
you need to test or evaluate.

Regards,  
Lukas

Meenakshi - you have given no indication that you have actually tried  
anything.

Read the docs [http://www.elasticsearch.com/docs/elasticsearch/](http://www.elasticsearch.com/docs/elasticsearch/) , try it  
out, and then let us know when you have specific questions.

Hi,

I am sorry i forgot to tell you in my below mail that i'am using batch  
indexer instead of http request from Elastic search. so i need to test  
the Elastic search by using 2 node+ 1 indexer, 3 node+ 2 indexer, 5  
node+ 4 indexers. In this way i can test my application by giving load  
to Elastic search. so l asked you to help me in creating the scenarios  
or did u try any scenarios like that.if so, please send me those  
scenarios, also if you try anything other than this. you can update  
me. so that i would be useful for me to move forward.

Many people use this scenario. They fire up several nodes, and then start  
indexing data into them using one or more "indexers". Go for it.
