I am trying to use the data from another totally different ES cluster through Kibana. I already changed Kibana URL in its yml. For ES, how should I configure it to not go to the default 127.0.01? Below is my current ES yml with new port/host. What else shall I do to make it listen to new port/host? # ---------------------------------- Network ----------------------------------- # # Set the bind address to a specific IP (IPv4 or IPv6): # # network.host: 192.168.0.194 # # Set a custom port for HTTP: # # http.port: 9300 # # For more information, see the documentation at: # [http://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/modules-network.html](http://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/modules-network.html) # # --------------------------------- Discovery ---------------------------------- # # Pass an initial list of hosts to perform discovery when new node is started: # The default list of hosts is ["192.168.0.194"] # # discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts: ["192.168.0.238","192.168.0.237","192.168.0.208","192.168.0.181"] ---

Changed it back to 9200 but still the same error... ---

Does that address exist on the host? ---

right. The server address there (I curled with) is the new ES server i try to get on. Could it be the ES server is already on so it prevents duplicate start? ---
