Hi to All...
```
Please Any One Tell Me If You Know., How to Configure Two
```
Clusters [of same version i.e., 0.20.5V],
setting like:
Cluster One: {node.data is set to true}
{master is true}
{cluster name is like., elasticserach1}
Cluster Two: {node.data is set to False}
{master is true}
{cluster name is like., elasticserach2}
One Cluster[elasticserach1] is For Purely Indexing and this cluster is not
suppose to search And
Another Cluster[elasticserach2] is for Searching Data , Which is Stored in
the Cluster[elasticserach1] and not suppose to Index data.
```
Is This is Possible to Have Two Different Clusters as in the
```
above Condition.
Please Any One Help me..
What I have to do to Accomplish my Requirement described Above.
Regards and Thanks to All,

Rafi:
You actually don't want two different clusters here. Set
cluster.name to the same thing for all nodes, and then for the
"cluster two" nodes, use:
node.client: true
These nodes will join the cluster with the "cluster one" nodes and
be able to see its data, but they won't get elected master or be
able to store data themselves. You can also issue queries to any
of the "cluster one" or "cluster two" nodes.

Hi Mohammad,
You will have to put all of your nodes in the same cluster name, in
order to allow both types of nodes to communicate.

Thanks to Stéphane R., and Drew Raines for Replying Me.
As Per Stéphane R.,

I will Do As you Say.
As Per Drew Raines.,

Now I will Use Settings like:
for ClusterOne: cluster name is like "elasticserach"
Master as true
node.data as true
for ClusterTwo: cluster name is like "elasticserach"
node.client: true \<-------------------
node.data as false
I think this is What You say me to Do.
Ok Once Again Thanks For Replying..
Regards
Mohammad Rafi

These are the defaults, FYI. You wouldn't need to do anything
special for the data nodes.

Setting node.client: true will automatically set node.data: false.
Cheers!

Hi., Drew Raines
Thanks for your Response. Now I am Clear about how to Configure settings to
work with two ElasticSearch servers.
And Now I am able to work with two ElasticSearch servers.
Thank You Very Much, Drew Raines, for reply me.

Mohammad Rafi.
