The different keystore settings did affect the result, now able to create bucket. Here is keystore list output:  
/mnt/elasticsearch# bin/elasticsearch-keystore list  
discovery.ec2.access\_key  
discovery.ec2.secret\_key  
s3.client.default.access\_key  
s3.client.default.secret\_key

Here is result of running shell script to create the repository bucket:  
/mnt/elasticsearch# bin/s3-repo-create.sh es-lineartv\_test  
{"acknowledged":true}
