Hi there,

I have installed a 3 node ES "Monitoring[http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/marvel/current/index.html](http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/marvel/current/index.html)"  
cluster and configured two other ES clusters (10 nodes one an 3 nodes one)  
to send data to it. The data gathering / storage seems to be working fine,  
but the display using "latest" Marvel UI a bit confusing. For example, on  
"Cluster Overview" page, how does one should pick a specific ES Cluster? At  
the moment, the "Cluster Summary" is jumping between two ES cluster I have  
seems to me randomly. I did try to add query criteria on top to make it  
choose to no avail...

That said, the "Nodes" panel on the same page works as expected - i.e. by  
defaults it show all reporting nodes (from both cluster), but if I specify  
"Filter" there, I do get information about Nodes of a specific cluster.

I'm new to Marvel and above may seems a bit naive, but in its current form,  
does "latest" Marvel was intended to support my Use Case? Thx.

Thanks for your help.

Regards, Me.

Hi Me,

At the moment marvel doesn't support monitoring multiple production  
clusters with a single monitoring one. Working on it!

Cheers,  
Boaz

Hi Boaz,

Looking forward to the update.  
I presume this will also address the "Warning: Multiple masters. 2 nodes  
report master role" of the nodes panel? 🙂

Perhaps it is possible to also use the cluster to differentiate between  
indices?  
Currently it seems like Marvel groups all data for indices based on its  
name alone.  
We have several clusters with the same index name (don't ask me why 😉 ),  
which makes the index metrics useless since there is no distinction between  
clusters.

gr,

If you monitor two clusters, you will have multiple masters - which is for  
a single cluster is a big no no. Multi cluster support in marvel will  
obviously address this.

Currently it seems like Marvel groups all data for indices based on its  
name alone.

We will use the cluster uuid to filter the data when displaying it. Same  
name indices shouldn't be a problem.
