I'm on the Azure marketplace and found the item called "Elastic Stack - (Elasticsearch, Kibana, X-Pack)" from Elastic as the publisher so I created an instance of it to experiment with. During the setup I saw how to create data nodes, master nodes and client nodes. What I'd like to know if if there is a way to add new nodes to each of these after I've created the Elasticsearch cluster assuming I would outgrow the original install I'd setup. It isn't obvious through the Azure portal how this would be done. Thanks in advance for your time!
