The elasticsearch version I am using is 2.3.
I have a 2 nodes elasticsearch cluster (with no kibana installed), and an individual elasticsearch data node( with kibana installed). The data node with kibana works perfectly by itself with Kibana showing the local data, but I want the data node with Kibana to join the cluster so that I can visualize data. When I change the settings of Datanode with kibana, Kibana cannot find elasticsearch anymore.
On the datanode_with_kibana node:
When the datanode_with_kibana elasticsearch.yml setting is all commented, and it working individually, and kibana is working perfectly.
But when I set in datanode_with_kibana elasticsearch.yml to join the cluster as follows:
cluster.name: elkstats
network.host: 10.100.16.14
Kibana cannot connect to Elasticsearch
I checked the cluster status using
curl -XGET 'http://Melasticsearch:9200/_cluster/health?pretty=true'
It shows datanode_with_kibana is recognized as a cluster member as follows:
{
"cluster_name" : "elkstats",
"status" : "green",
"timed_out" : false,
"number_of_nodes" : 3,
"number_of_data_nodes" : 3,
"active_primary_shards" : 17,
"active_shards" : 31,
"relocating_shards" : 0,
"initializing_shards" : 0,
"unassigned_shards" : 0,
"delayed_unassigned_shards" : 0,
"number_of_pending_tasks" : 0,
"number_of_in_flight_fetch" : 0,
"task_max_waiting_in_queue_millis" : 0,
"active_shards_percent_as_number" : 100.0
}
The kibana.yml file setting:
server.port: 5601
server.host: "datanode_with_kibana"
elasticsearch.url: "http://10.100.16.14:9200"
