ElasticSearch Cluster Setup Issue with Master

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi Guys,

I am getting the below error while trying to create an elasticsearch cluster:

systemctl status elasticsearch
elasticsearch.service - Elasticsearch
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/elasticsearch.service; enabled)
Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Mon 2016-10-10 09:40:59 EDT; 18h ago
Docs: http://www.elastic.co
Main PID: 32421 (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE)

Please help me out to fix?

Thanks, Prasad

What do the Elasticsearch logs show?

3

I see an empty logging.xml file in /etc/elasticsearch/ folder. Do we have any other location to view the log info?

I am getting the issue only on master node but the other 2 slave nodes are running fine.

There is no such thing as a slave node in ES.

/etc/elasticsearch is for config, look under /var/log

Actually I am creating a cluster on 3 nodes, and 1 node as master, 1 node as data node and another as client node,

i followed the below link:
http://www.tuxfixer.com/install-and-configure-elasticsearch-cluster-on-centos-7-nodes/

So all is fine except the master node when i try to run the below command is failing:
systemctl status elasticsearch
