I am trying to setup the elasticsearch cluster on 3 nodes with AWS ELB.

```
    docker run \
    -p 9200:9200 \
    -p 9300:9300 \
    --name es-master1 \
    -v es-master1:/usr/share/elasticsearch/data \
    -v es-master1_log:/var/log/elasticsearch \
    -e "ES_JAVA_OPTS=-Xms4g -Xmx4g" \
    -e "node.master=true" \
    -e "node.ingest=true" \
    -e "node.data=true" \
    -e "node.name=ip-10-6-175-54.cloud.dev.net" \
    -e "cluster.name=main-cluster" \
    -e "network.host=0.0.0.0" \
    -e "cluster.initial_master_nodes=ip-10-6-175-54.cloud.dev.net,ip-10-6-175-188.cloud.dev.net,ip-10-6-175-164.cloud.dev.net" \
    -e "discovery.seed_hosts=10.6.175.188:9300,10.6.175.164:9300" \
    -e "discovery.zen.minimum_master_nodes=2" \
    -e "xpack.security.enabled=false" \
    -e "xpack.monitoring.enabled=true" \
    artifactory.global.xyz/elasticsearch/elasticsearch:7.4.2

```

But I am getting the below warning message and cluster is not getting formed.

`{"type": "server", "timestamp": "2019-11-12T12:42:30,807Z", "level": "WARN", "component": "o.e.c.c.ClusterFormationFailureHelper", "cluster.name": "main-cluster", "node.name": "ip-10-6-175-54.cloud.dev.net", "message": "master not discovered yet, this node has not previously joined a bootstrapped (v7+) cluster, and this node must discover master-eligible nodes [ip-10-6-175-54.cloud.dev.net, ip-10-6-175-188.cloud.dev.net, ip-10-6-175-164.cloud.dev.net] to bootstrap a cluster: have discovered [{ip-10-6-175-54.cloud.dev.net}{9AX2HGjcRkSGbSyfpQxmEQ}{RXc3q5aiSDS18Z5jlXFeGw}{172.17.0.3}{172.17.0.3:9300}{dilm}{ml.machine_memory=7937126400, xpack.installed=true, ml.max_open_jobs=20}]; discovery will continue using [10.6.175.188:9300, 10.6.175.164:9300] from hosts providers and [{ip-10-6-175-54.cloud.dev.net}{9AX2HGjcRkSGbSyfpQxmEQ}{RXc3q5aiSDS18Z5jlXFeGw}{172.17.0.3}{172.17.0.3:9300}{dilm}{ml.machine_memory=7937126400, xpack.installed=true, ml.max_open_jobs=20}] from last-known cluster state; node term 0, last-accepted version 0 in term 0" }`

I am able to do the telnet for other two instances `telnet ip 9200`  
is there any configuration missing. can someone please help me to understand issue here.

Hi Team,  
I have additional environment variables for TRACE logging

This node is trying to connect to the other two nodes at addresses `10.6.175.188:9300` and `10.6.175.164:9300` but is not discovering them there. I also note that this node claims its address is `172.17.0.3` which I think is different from what you expect. This looks like a network configuration issue to me.

The IP is a docker IP address. If the node is set to network\_node: "host" this will give the IP of the EC2 vs the local container IP.

This won't resolve the underlying issue though. Thats still something I am looking for myself.

Hi @DavidTurner Thanks for your response.

after I add these two environment variables in the docker cmd

```
-e "network.publish_host=10.6.175.170" \

```

I am getting below message

Again, this looks like a networking issue. The logs show that this node is attempting to connect to the addresses shown, and those attempts are timing out.

Finally we made the elasticsearch cluster setup working .

The issue is due to the security group set for ec2 instance not exposing 9300 port at instance level.

Thanks for your support.
