I am currently using ECK version 1.2 and Elasticsearch version 7.10.0 managed by ECK. I have restarted one of the elasticsearch pods and I am getting the below errors after pod has restarted. kubectl logs -n eo elastic-es-ingest-data-0 {"type": "server", "timestamp": "2020-11-19T06:24:33,404Z", "level": "ERROR", "component": "o.e.b.ElasticsearchUncaughtExceptionHandler", "cluster.name": "elastic", "node.name": "elastic-es-ingest-data-0", "message": "uncaught exception in thread [main]", "stacktrace": ["org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.StartupException: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Unable to access 'path.data' (/usr/share/elasticsearch/data)", "at org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.Elasticsearch.init(Elasticsearch.java:174) ~[elasticsearch-7.10.0.jar:7.10.0]", "at org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.Elasticsearch.execute(Elasticsearch.java:161) ~[elasticsearch-7.10.0.jar:7.10.0]", "at org.elasticsearch.cli.EnvironmentAwareCommand.execute(EnvironmentAwareCommand.java:86) ~[elasticsearch-7.10.0.jar:7.10.0]", "at org.elasticsearch.cli.Command.mainWithoutErrorHandling(Command.java:127) ~[elasticsearch-cli-7.10.0.jar:7.10.0]", "at org.elasticsearch.cli.Command.main(Command.java:90) ~[elasticsearch-cli-7.10.0.jar:7.10.0]", "at org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.Elasticsearch.main(Elasticsearch.java:126) ~[elasticsearch-7.10.0.jar:7.10.0]", "at org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.Elasticsearch.main(Elasticsearch.java:92) ~[elasticsearch-7.10.0.jar:7.10.0]", "Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Unable to access 'path.data' (/usr/share/elasticsearch/data)", "at org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.FilePermissionUtils.addDirectoryPath(FilePermissionUtils.java:72) ~[elasticsearch-7.10.0.jar:7.10.0]", "at org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.Security.addFilePermissions(Security.java:306) ~[elasticsearch-7.10.0.jar:7.10.0]", "at org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.Security.createPermissions(Security.java:253) ~[elasticsearch-7.10.0.jar:7.10.0]", "at org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.Security.configure(Security.java:121) ~[elasticsearch-7.10.0.jar:7.10.0]", "at org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.Bootstrap.setup(Bootstrap.java:222) ~[elasticsearch-7.10.0.jar:7.10.0]", "at org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.Bootstrap.init(Bootstrap.java:393) ~[elasticsearch-7.10.0.jar:7.10.0]", "at org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.Elasticsearch.init(Elasticsearch.java:170) ~[elasticsearch-7.10.0.jar:7.10.0]", "... 6 more", "Caused by: java.nio.file.AccessDeniedException: /usr/share/elasticsearch/data", "at sun.nio.fs.UnixException.translateToIOException(UnixException.java:90) ~[?:?]", "at sun.nio.fs.UnixException.rethrowAsIOException(UnixException.java:106) ~[?:?]", "at sun.nio.fs.UnixException.rethrowAsIOException(UnixException.java:111) ~[?:?]", "at sun.nio.fs.UnixFileSystemProvider.checkAccess(UnixFileSystemProvider.java:312) ~[?:?]", "at org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.Security.ensureDirectoryExists(Security.java:394) ~[elasticsearch-7.10.0.jar:7.10.0]", uncaught exception in thread [main] "at org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.FilePermissionUtils.addDirectoryPath(FilePermissionUtils.java:70) ~[elasticsearch-7.10.0.jar:7.10.0]", "at org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.Security.addFilePermissions(Security.java:306) ~[elasticsearch-7.10.0.jar:7.10.0]", "at org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.Security.createPermissions(Security.java:253) ~[elasticsearch-7.10.0.jar:7.10.0]", "at org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.Security.configure(Security.java:121) ~[elasticsearch-7.10.0.jar:7.10.0]", "at org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.Bootstrap.setup(Bootstrap.java:222) ~[elasticsearch-7.10.0.jar:7.10.0]", "at org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.Bootstrap.init(Bootstrap.java:393) ~[elasticsearch-7.10.0.jar:7.10.0]", "at org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.Elasticsearch.init(Elasticsearch.java:170) ~[elasticsearch-7.10.0.jar:7.10.0]", "... 6 more"] } I am currently doing all this for testing purposes, once everything is working fine then I will implement this in production. So I am desperately looking for a solution for this issue Answer would be really appreciated. Thank you. ---

Was the cluster working correctly until you restarted the pod? What is the volume configuration you are using? Please provide your Elasticsearch manifest and information about your Kubernetes cluster -- such as the version, flavour (GKE, EKS, On-prem etc.) and whether you have pod security policies configured. ---

Sorry it is not coming nicely the Yaml file ---

You can use Markdown-style triple backticks (```) to enclose the YAML. It is difficult to read in its current form. Also, please include the output from `kubectl describe elastic-es-ingest-data-0 -n eo` as well. ---

Yes I am trying but I wont be able to post the yaml in correct format. While describing the pod I am getting kubectl describe -n eo elastic-es-ingest-data-0 error: the server doesn't have a resource type "elastic-es-ingest-data-0" because it havent even started. ---

Sorry I made a mistake with the command, it should be: `kubectl describe pod elastic-es-ingest-data-0 -n eo`. Not sure I understand why you can't format the YAML though. It really helps to see YAML in the correct format because spacing is significant. ---
