Hi Team,  
I am getting below error while running elastic search after enable security 🙂

Thanks for the reply.

I have followed all that security step after generated certificate.  
While try to run elastic search. I am getting the above error.

Use this note, and change your elasticsearch.yml file

```
 discovery.type: single-node

```

### Single-node discovery ([https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/edit/7.2/docs/reference/setup/bootstrap-checks.asciidoc](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/edit/7.2/docs/reference/setup/bootstrap-checks.asciidoc))

We recognize that some users need to bind transport to an external interface for testing their usage of the transport client. For this situation, we provide the discovery type `single-node` (configure it by setting `discovery.type` to `single-node` ); in this situation, a node will elect itself master and will not join a cluster with any other node.
