ES cluster with SSH and port forwarding, transport port 9300

Maxclac · February 27, 2018, 11:38am

Hello everyone!

I would like to set up an ES cluster consisting of three nodes, i.e. my local machine ('localhost') and two virtual machines in a remote network ('host1' and 'host2')

For each of them, I have this very simple elasticsearch.yml:

  network.host: 0.0.0.0
  discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts: ["localhost","host1","host2"]

The two remote nodes are already seeing each other:

curl -XGET 'localhost:9200/_cluster/health?pretty'
{
  "cluster_name" : "elasticsearch",
  "status" : "green",
  "timed_out" : false,
  "number_of_nodes" : 2,
  "number_of_data_nodes" : 2,
  "active_primary_shards" : 15,
  "active_shards" : 30,
  "relocating_shards" : 0,
  "initializing_shards" : 0,
  "unassigned_shards" : 0,
  "delayed_unassigned_shards" : 0,
  "number_of_pending_tasks" : 0,
  "number_of_in_flight_fetch" : 0,
  "task_max_waiting_in_queue_millis" : 0,
  "active_shards_percent_as_number" : 100.0
}

Now, what I would like to do is to make my local machine to also see these nodes and be seen by them, hence having finally a 3 nodes cluster.

I assume that I am missing a parameter in my elasticsearch.yml file in order to do that.
Obviously, I will also have to connect my local machine to one of the nodes with an ssh and port forwarding, maybe like this:

ssh -L 9301:localhost:9300 root@host1

What am I missing? Thank you for your help!

Hello again! Is there really no one who can help me with this?

dadoonet · March 12, 2018, 7:38pm

You might have forgotten to set network.host on your local machine?

Maxclac · March 13, 2018, 8:47am

No, it is set on all three machines.

dadoonet · March 13, 2018, 10:35am

Can you share the 3 elasticsearch.yml and the 3 node logs please?

Maxclac · March 13, 2018, 11:04am

elasticsearch.yml (same for all three):

 network.host: 0.0.0.0
 discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts: ["130.183.2.90","130.183.209.36","130.183.198.13","130.183.198.14"]
 transport.tcp.port: 9301

Your port is 9301 but this:

discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts:["130.183.2.90","130.183.209.36","130.183.198.13","130.183.198.14"]

Means actually:

discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts:["130.183.2.90:9300","130.183.209.36:9300","130.183.198.13:9300","130.183.198.14:9300"]

So change with:

discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts:["130.183.2.90:9301","130.183.209.36:9301","130.183.198.13:9301","130.183.198.14:9301"]

Maxclac · March 13, 2018, 12:53pm

I see. And what kind of port forwarding should I do in that case?

Sorry but I don't know. May be someone else.

Hi @Maxclac

Why do you want to forward those ports ?

Access them from outside of your local network ? (WAN)

Maxclac · March 21, 2018, 7:53pm

Yes.
