ERROR: Failed to set password for user [apm_system]

[Ludovic9]

hi,
I'm trying to setup authentication on my elk stack. I have done a test with my test environnment, it was OK but in production, I can't do the first step.
I am in 6.8.3 and I have 4 nodes. And basic licence.

I have generate the certificate and copy it on each node.

./elasticsearch-certutil cert -out /etc/elasticsearch/config/cert.p12 -pass ""

in my yml file, on the master, I have added this :

  xpack.security.enabled: true
  xpack.security.transport.ssl.enabled: true
  xpack.security.audit.enabled: true
  xpack.security.authc.realms.native.type: native
  
  xpack.security.transport.ssl.verification_mode: certificate
  xpack.security.transport.ssl.keystore.path: /etc/elasticsearch/config/cert.p12

xpack.security.transport.ssl.truststore.path: /etc/elasticsearch/config/cert.p12

then I have restart this node.

I done this following command to generate the passwords :

./elasticsearch-setup-passwords interactive

But at the end, I have an error :

Unexpected response code [503] from calling PUT http://172.21.2.69:9200/_xpack/security/user/apm_system/_password?pretty
Cause: Cluster state has not been recovered yet, cannot write to the security index

Possible next steps:

• Try running this tool again.
• Try running with the --verbose parameter for additional messages.
• Check the elasticsearch logs for additional error details.
• Use the change password API manually.

ERROR: Failed to set password for user [apm_system].

Where is my mistake ? Do I have ro restart each node ?

Thank you for your replies.
