Hi,  
I have an Elastic stack server in which I installed the following,  
ES - 6.2  
Logstash - 6.2  
Kibana - 6.2  
I am using only one ES node and not yet using the clustering set up.  
But when I verified the ES status through KIBANA Monitoring dashboard and through terminal , its prompting as follows,

```
 curl -XGET --user elastic 'http://myserver:9200/_cat/health?v'
Enter host password for user 'elastic':
epoch timestamp cluster status node.total node.data shards pri relo init unassign pending_tasks max_task_wait_time active_shards_percent
1534760180 15:46:20 elasticsearch yellow 1 1 39 39 0 0 28 0 - 58.2%

```

How the shards is getting configured without any configuration changes. I have only one node and not having any replica or shards.

Request to advise!

It looks like you have X-Pack installed, so it will be creating some indices.

Look at `_cat/indices`/
