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.
