Cool,
I'll try that next.

Thx,

I always start Elasticsearch from within my own wrapper script, es.sh.

Inside this wrapper script is the following incantation:

NODE_OPT="-Des.node.name http://es.node.name=$(uname -n | cut -d'.'
-f1)"

This is verified to work on Linux, Mac OS X, and Solaris (at least).

I then pass $NODE_OPT as a command-line argument to the elasticsearchstart-up script.

BTW, I seem to recall reading that the "es." prefix on the node.namevariable is no longer needed for 1.0 GA. But it still works fine, so I have
left it there.

This has always worked since ES 0.19.4 (the very first version I installed
and started using). I worked closely with our deployment engineer, and we
settled on a set of wrapper scripts that let me start everything on my
laptop in exactly the same way that it all starts on a production server.

One other issue.

I have never been able to deploy an elasticsearch.yml which names the
cluster node the same as the machine hostname despite the suggestions in
another thread. It just won't work, and based on another thread I strongly
suspect the underlying Java code implements single quotes instead of double
quotes when evaluating the variable.

So, because it's a unique variable that needs to be set on each machine,
that part of the config won't allow simply pointing all nodes to the same
config script.

Is why, short of looking for the error in the Java code I've been looking
at various simple and more enterprise tools that write individual config
files to each node.

It is common in Red Hat style RPMs and init scripts to abstract out as much
of the local settings as possible from the packaged configuration into
separate files under /etc/sysconfig with the init script merging in those
options at startup. That way the package updates generally don't have to
deal with locally modified files - which is good since rpm doesn't have a
way to make interactive choices during an install or update.
