Kicking a node off Elasticsearch cluster

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi,
Is there a way to kick a node out of Elasticsearch cluster? Effectively, it
means redistributing the shards present on the "faulty" node to the
existing nodes, so that in meanwhile faulty node can be replaced.

Cheers

Why not shutdown the node?

Hello!

If you want to move shards from a node look here: https://github.com/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/issues/2256

However its only available for the newest ElasticSearch version.

If you want to move shards from a node look here:
Cluster Reroute API: Allow to specify allocation commands · Issue #2256 · elastic/elasticsearch · GitHub

As David suggested, the shutdown API can be used - it will ensure that
shards are reallocated as necessary

However its only available for the newest Elasticsearch version.
