Elasticsearch reroute mechanism

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi;

I am new to elasticsearch and not familiar to its terms too. Could anybody
explain how elasticsearch reroute mechanism (
http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/cluster-reroute.html)
works internally?

Thanks;
Furkan KAMACI

As you are new to all this, I'm wondering what you would like to achieve here or why do you think this is important for your use case.
I meant that by default elasticsearch is doing all that reroute thing for you if a node is added or removed so you don't need to take care of that.

To answer, reroute do what documentation describes: it can move a shard to node or allocate a shard which is not yet allocated.
