Hi guys, With the following **elasticsearch.yaml** : [cluster.name](http://cluster.name): test [node.name](http://node.name): ${HOSTNAME} ``` network.host: _eth0:ipv4_ discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts: ["public_ip_1", "public_ip_2"] discovery.zen.minimum_master_nodes: 1 discovery.zen.ping_timeout: 10s ``` One host succeeds to be elected as master, whereas the second one fails to join the master. **Logs from the expected slave** : connected to node [{#zen\_unicast\_2#}{ekYs0cmNQbGPTFwL2ZZuFQ}{172.31.10.156}{172.31.10.156:9300}] disconnecting from [{#zen\_unicast\_2#}{ekYs0cmNQbGPTFwL2ZZuFQ}{172.31.10.156}{172.31.10.156:9300}] due to explicit disconnect call filtered ping responses: (ignore\_non\_masters [false]) --\> ping\_response{node [{dcc65eaca77f}{TzGpUkVZTbSpC6JOYczpfw}{bICdACsIRQmHyK8ULAHJGg}{172.17.0.2}{172.17.0.2:9300}], id[564], master [{dcc65eaca77f}{TzGpUkVZTbSpC6JOYczpfw}{bICdACsIRQmHyK8ULAHJGg}{172.17.0.2}{172.17.0.2:9300}], cluster\_state\_version [2], cluster\_name[mrgiggy-cluster-sly]} --\> ping\_response{node [{3bd521b16904}{zRlNhZEHRx-czZnRu8rMAw}{FgQgX8X0SW2b1QevmCVf6A}{172.17.0.2}{172.17.0.2:9300}], id[1849], master [null], cluster\_state\_version [-1], cluster\_name[mrgiggy-cluster-sly]} processing [zen-disco-election-stop [{dcc65eaca77f}{TzGpUkVZTbSpC6JOYczpfw}{bICdACsIRQmHyK8ULAHJGg}{172.17.0.2}{172.17.0.2:9300} elected]]: execute processing [zen-disco-election-stop [{dcc65eaca77f}{TzGpUkVZTbSpC6JOYczpfw}{bICdACsIRQmHyK8ULAHJGg}{172.17.0.2}{172.17.0.2:9300} elected]]: took [0s] no change in cluster\_state disconnecting from [{#zen\_unicast\_1#}{E\_PHzBqzRUuv-8-dK79lHA}{172.31.10.157}{172.31.10.157:9300}] due to explicit disconnect call processing [zen-disco-node-join[{3bd521b16904}{zRlNhZEHRx-czZnRu8rMAw}{FgQgX8X0SW2b1QevmCVf6A}{172.17.0.2}{172.17.0.2:9300}]]: execute cluster state update task [zen-disco-node-join[{3bd521b16904}{zRlNhZEHRx-czZnRu8rMAw}{FgQgX8X0SW2b1QevmCVf6A}{172.17.0.2}{172.17.0.2:9300}]] failed org.elasticsearch.cluster.NotMasterException: Node [{3bd521b16904}{zRlNhZEHRx-czZnRu8rMAw}{FgQgX8X0SW2b1QevmCVf6A}{172.17.0.2}{172.17.0.2:9300}] not master for join request processing [zen-disco-node-join[{3bd521b16904}{zRlNhZEHRx-czZnRu8rMAw}{FgQgX8X0SW2b1QevmCVf6A}{172.17.0.2}{172.17.0.2:9300}]]: took [0s] no change in cluster\_state processing [zen-disco-node-join[{3bd521b16904}{zRlNhZEHRx-czZnRu8rMAw}{FgQgX8X0SW2b1QevmCVf6A}{172.17.0.2}{172.17.0.2:9300}]]: execute cluster state update task [zen-disco-node-join[{3bd521b16904}{zRlNhZEHRx-czZnRu8rMAw}{FgQgX8X0SW2b1QevmCVf6A}{172.17.0.2}{172.17.0.2:9300}]] failed org.elasticsearch.cluster.NotMasterException: Node [{3bd521b16904}{zRlNhZEHRx-czZnRu8rMAw}{FgQgX8X0SW2b1QevmCVf6A}{172.17.0.2}{172.17.0.2:9300}] not master for join request processing [zen-disco-node-join[{3bd521b16904}{zRlNhZEHRx-czZnRu8rMAw}{FgQgX8X0SW2b1QevmCVf6A}{172.17.0.2}{172.17.0.2:9300}]]: took [0s] no change in cluster\_state processing [zen-disco-node-join[{3bd521b16904}{zRlNhZEHRx-czZnRu8rMAw}{FgQgX8X0SW2b1QevmCVf6A}{172.17.0.2}{172.17.0.2:9300}]]: execute cluster state update task [zen-disco-node-join[{3bd521b16904}{zRlNhZEHRx-czZnRu8rMAw}{FgQgX8X0SW2b1QevmCVf6A}{172.17.0.2}{172.17.0.2:9300}]] failed org.elasticsearch.cluster.NotMasterException: Node [{3bd521b16904}{zRlNhZEHRx-czZnRu8rMAw}{FgQgX8X0SW2b1QevmCVf6A}{172.17.0.2}{172.17.0.2:9300}] not master for join request processing [zen-disco-node-join[{3bd521b16904}{zRlNhZEHRx-czZnRu8rMAw}{FgQgX8X0SW2b1QevmCVf6A}{172.17.0.2}{172.17.0.2:9300}]]: took [0s] no change in cluster\_state failed to send join request to master [{dcc65eaca77f}{TzGpUkVZTbSpC6JOYczpfw}{bICdACsIRQmHyK8ULAHJGg}{172.17.0.2}{172.17.0.2:9300}], reason [RemoteTransportException[[3bd521b16904][172.17.0.2:9300][internal:discovery/zen/join]]; nested: NotMasterException[Node [{3bd521b16904}{zRlNhZEHRx-czZnRu8rMAw}{FgQgX8X0SW2b1QevmCVf6A}{172.17.0.2}{172.17.0.2:9300}] not master for join request]; ], tried [3] times processing [finalize\_join ({dcc65eaca77f}{TzGpUkVZTbSpC6JOYczpfw}{bICdACsIRQmHyK8ULAHJGg}{172.17.0.2}{172.17.0.2:9300})]: execute processing [finalize\_join ({dcc65eaca77f}{TzGpUkVZTbSpC6JOYczpfw}{bICdACsIRQmHyK8ULAHJGg}{172.17.0.2}{172.17.0.2:9300})]: took [0s] no change in cluster\_state Any idea? ---

Please format your code using `` icon. It will make your post more readable. Why do you use the public\_ip addresses in unicast list? Try with the private IPs which I believe are the same as given by `_eth0:ipv4`? If it does not answer to your question, can you provide the full logs of both servers? ---

You're right. I tried with the private IPs, given the same failure. I finally decided to not use docker as it works from the first test without it. ---

So you are using Docker? It was not explicitly said here or I missed that. I see now that you actually opened another discussion > [@Elasticsearch 5.0.1 fails to start on AWS with discovery-ec2: BindException\[Cannot assign requested address\]](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/elasticsearch-5-0-1-fails-to-start-on-aws-with-discovery-ec2-bindexception-cannot-assign-requested-address/66524): > > Hi friends, With the following elasticsearch.yaml: [cluster.name](http://cluster.name): \*\*\* [node.name](http://node.name): ${HOSTNAME} cloud: aws: region: eu-west-1 discovery: type: ec2 network: host: \_ec2 discovery.zen.minimum\_master\_nodes: 1 discovery.zen.ping\_timeout: 10s Dockerfile: FROM elasticsearch:5.0 RUN /usr/share/elasticsearch/bin/elasticsearch-plugin install discovery-ec2 COPY elasticsearch.yml /usr/share/elasticsearch/config/ COPY log4j2.properties /usr/share/elasticsearch/config/ USER elasti… ---
