I have a 1 data - 1 master es cluster.
On my master01:

[root@master01-elastic ~]# ss -tula | grep -i 9300
[root@master01-elastic ~]#

This makes master undiscoverable so in my data01

[2019-02-11T02:24:09,882][WARN ][o.e.d.z.ZenDiscovery     ] [data01-elastic] not enough master nodes discovered during pinging (found [[]], but needed [1]), pinging again

Also on my data01

[root@data01-elastic ~]# cat /etc/elasticsearch/data01-elastic/elasticsearch.yml | grep -i zen
discovery.zen.minimum_master_nodes: 1
discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts: 10.18.0.13:9300



[root@data01-elastic ~]# ping 10.18.0.13
PING 10.18.0.13 (10.18.0.13) 56(84) bytes of data.

64 bytes from 10.18.0.13: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.147 ms

How can I further troubleshoot this?

The cluster was deployed using these ansible scripts:

with this configuration for the master:

  - hosts: masters

    tasks:

    - name: Elasticsearch Master Configuration
      import_role:
          name: elastic.elasticsearch
      vars:
        es_instance_name: "{{ ansible_hostname }}"
        es_data_dirs:
          - "{{ data_dir }}"
        es_log_dir: "/opt/elasticsearch/logs"
        es_config:
          node.name: "{{ ansible_hostname }}"
          cluster.name: "{{ cluster_name }}"
          discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts: "{% for host in groups['masters'] -%}{{ hostvars[host]['ansible_ens33']['ipv4']['address'] }}:9300{% if not loop.last %},{% endif %}{%- endfor %}"
          http.port: 9200
          transport.tcp.port: 9300
          node.data: false
          node.master: true
          bootstrap.memory_lock: true
          network.host: '{{ ansible_facts["ens33"]["ipv4"]["address"] }}'
          discovery.zen.minimum_master_nodes: 1
        es_xpack_features: []
        es_scripts: false
        es_templates: false
        es_version_lock: true
        es_heap_size: 2g
        es_api_port: 9200

and this for the data

  - hosts: data

    tasks:

    - name: Elasticsearch Data Configuration
      import_role:
          name: elastic.elasticsearch
      vars:
        es_instance_name: "{{ ansible_hostname }}"
        es_data_dirs:
          - "{{ data_dir }}"
        es_log_dir: "/opt/elasticsearch/logs"
        es_config:
          node.name: "{{ ansible_hostname }}"
          cluster.name: "{{ cluster_name }}"
          discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts: "{% for host in groups['masters'] -%}{{ hostvars[host]['ansible_ens33']['ipv4']['address'] }}:9300{% if not loop.last %},{% endif %}{%- endfor %}"
          http.port: 9200
          transport.tcp.port: 9300
          node.data: true
          node.master: false
          bootstrap.memory_lock: true
          network.host: '{{ ansible_facts["ens33"]["ipv4"]["address"] }}'
          discovery.zen.minimum_master_nodes: 1
        es_xpack_features: []
        es_scripts: false
        es_templates: false
        es_version_lock: true
        es_heap_size: 6g
        es_api_port: 9200

The 2 VMs I was trying to establish communication among were Centos7 which has firewalld enabled by default.

Disabling and stopping the service solved the issue.
