how to use multiple atributes in elasticsearch, so we can use for shard allocation.

I tried

`node.attr.role: [events, archive]`  
and  
`node.attr.role: events,archive`

but both fail with:

`"explanation": "node does not match index setting [index.routing.allocation.include] filters [role:\"primary OR archive OR events\"]"`
