Hi,

I have 3 Node cluster (7.9.2) with elasticsearch license.
I want to add more 5 Data nodes on my existing cluster.
Do I need to have License for extra nodes also?

Please Help me with this situation
Thanks
Regards Rohit

What's you actual license ? Basic or Gold/Platinum
If G/P yes you need additional license

Rohit_Kumbhar · January 15, 2021, 9:09am

I have Platinum License of 3 nodes

So Yes you need additional licenses to cover 5 more nodes
