Logs with more than one marvel character: sanity check?

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
#1

I am debugging a problem with a web application I have that has an in
process instance of elastic search. According to the instance when it hit
http://:port/, I see that the instance's name is "Cardinal":
{

  • ok: true,
  • status: 200,
  • name: "Cardinal",
  • version:
    {
    • number: "0.19.10",
    • snapshot_build: false
      },
  • tagline: "You Know, for Search"

}

however, when I look in the logs, I see things like this:
tail_catalina.log-1353524461:19:00:36,276 DEBUG netty:94 - [Lucas Brand]
disconnected from [[#transport#-1][inet[/:9300]]]
tail_catalina.log-1353524461:19:00:36,980 DEBUG netty:94 - [Lucas Brand]
connected to node [[#transport#-1][inet[/:9300]]]

Does this potentially mean I have a bug wherein I have two instance
running? this would obviously be a bug, but I can't reason out any other
reason why I would see these log messages. These web applications are
clustered across elastic beanstalk and I don't see these messages in the
other server logs.

basically, I am wondering if it is normal to see log messages for more than
one superhero per instance, or if it points to a potential bug.

thanks for your help!

If you are using Node Client in your web application, "Lucas Brand" can be
the name of your client node.

You can always check which nodes are in your cluster and where by running

curl -XGET 'http://:port/_cluster/nodes?pretty=true'

Thanks Igor, I am almost positive this is what's happening here.
