Esrally gets stuck on check-cluster-health

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
2

Hi Alpha,

Would you mind running your curl check using the same endpoint as Rally? I.e.,

curl 'http://127.0.0.1:39200/_cluster/health/nyc_taxis?wait_for_status=green&wait_for_no_relocating_shards=false'

Also, make sure there are no other process leftovers from other esrally executions.

Can you share more of rally.log, preferably the complete file and any customized configurations?

GET /_cluster/health/<index> can behave this way for non-existing indices or if the index will never be green. _cat/health returns green because it represents the status of all known indices in the cluster.

Some possibilities:

  • The nyc_taxis index exists but is yellow. This will happen if the number of index replicas has been configured to be >0 for a single node cluster.
  • nyc_taxis does not exist and is, therefore red.
