I have three virtual machines(192.168.245.128, 192.168.245.129, 192.168.245.130), respectively, in the above installed ES5.1.2, in the configuration of the cluster environment is encountered errors, the error in the three machines are similar.

1. This can be between the three machines can ping, you can telnet.
2. The following information is displayed for each machine.

## 192.168.245.128

I chose a configuration file on a machine to show:

```
cluster.name: my-test
node.name: node-1
network.host: 192.168.245.128
discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts: ["192.168.245.129", "192.168.245.130"]
discovery.zen.minimum_master_nodes: 2
```
