Elasticsearch import configuration files

Hello,

Is there anyway to reconfigure elasticsearch without changing the main
/etc/elasticsearch/elasticsearch.yml file?

We want to setup an elasticsearch.yml file that is common for all our test
environments. Then we want an additional file that is specific to the
environment. That environment specific file might change the cluster name,
change the discovery mode, etc.

Is this possible with elasticsearch? Can we give it a list of locations
where it can find the elasticsearch.yml

For example this is supported:

path.data: ["/mnt/first", "/mnt/second"]

Is this supported?
path.conf: ["/etc/elasticsearch", "/etc/elasticsearch.d/*"]

or this?

path.conf: ["/etc/elasticsearch", "/etc/elasticsearch-local/"]

You cannot use an array in path.conf.

Is there any other way of modifying the elasticsearch configuration without
modifying the package manager installed elasticsearch.yml file?

You can define your own path by calling the ES binary with
-Des.path.config=/path
