I have zero number of replicas still the shards are unassgined

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Here is the info about my cluster:

master node
master + data node 1
data node 2
data node 3
data node 4
data node 5

Number of shards : 1
Number of replicas : 0

total number of primary shards : 49

Still i see some shards getting unassgined.

Can anybody please help me with this issue ?

Why is this happening ?

Thanks & Regards,
Siddharth

Hey,

you need to provide more information, like the output the cat shards API and potentially occuring exceptions in your logfiles (check the master node especially).

hey!

My log files look like mentioned below :

[2016-04-18 09:41:38,017][INFO ][cluster.service ] [master] added {[data2][-OcqBdHrT4G1uXRyegqUeQ][gaugedata-elastic][inet[/10.1.1.13:9302]]{master=false},}, reason: zen-disco-receive(join from node[[data2][-OcqBdHrT4G1uXRyegqUeQ][gaugedata-elastic][inet[/10.1.1.13:9302]]{master=false}])
[2016-04-18 09:41:38,023][INFO ][cluster.service ] [master+data1] added {[data2][-OcqBdHrT4G1uXRyegqUeQ][gaugedata-elastic][inet[/10.1.1.13:9302]]{master=false},}, reason: zen-disco-receive(from master [[master][UJ98LPmGRkGDCItGoGTK5w][gaugedata-elastic][inet[/10.1.1.13:9300]]{data=false, master=true}])
And the _cat url gives the following output :
