Hello everyone!

I am using ES 5.6.2 and I created two nodes within a cluster.  
I simply want to have one master node and one slave node.

Here are the configuration files for both of them:

```
  cluster.name: nomad-cluster

  node.name: nomad-node-fnico-test
  node.master: true
  node.data: true

  path.data: /var/data/elasticsearch
  path.logs: /var/log/elasticsearch

  network.host: 0.0.0.0
  network.bind_host: _global_

  http.port: 9200

# transport.host: 130.183.198.7
# transport.tcp.port: 9300-9400

  discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts: ["130.183.198.7:9200","130.183.198.71:9200"]
  discovery.zen.minimum_master_nodes: 1

```

and

```
 cluster.name: nomad-cluster

  node.name: nomad-node-fnico-test2
  node.master: false
  node.data: true

  path.data: /var/data/elasticsearch
  path.logs: /var/log/elasticsearch

# network.host: 130.183.198.7
# network.bind_ cluster.name: nomad-cluster

  node.name: nomad-node-fnico-test2
  node.master: false
  node.data: true

  path.data: /var/data/elasticsearch
  path.logs: /var/log/elasticsearch

# network.host: 130.183.198.7
# network.bind_host: 130.183.198.7
  network.host: 0.0.0.0
  network.bind_host: _global_
  http.port: 9200

# transport.host: _global_
# transport.tcp.port: 9300-9400
# discovery.zen.ping.unicast.enabled: true
  discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts: ["130.183.198.7:9200","130.183.198.71:9200"]

  discovery.zen.minimum_master_nodes: 1

host: 130.183.198.7
  network.host: 0.0.0.0
  network.bind_host: _global_
  http.port: 9200

# discovery.zen.ping.multicast.enabled: false -- not in ES5 !

# transport.host: _global_
# transport.tcp.port: 9300-9400
# discovery.zen.ping.unicast.enabled: true
  discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts: ["130.183.198.7:9200","130.183.198.71:9200"]

  discovery.zen.minimum_master_nodes: 1

```

The nodes are on two different machines connected with an ssh connection with forwarding on the port 9200.

ES on the master node works fine, but not on the slave node. This happens:

What could be the issue here?

The problem is that you are using port 9200 where 9300 should be used instead.

Instead of

```
discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts: ["130.183.198.7:9200","130.183.198.71:9200"]

```

Write:

```
discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts: ["130.183.198.7:9300","130.183.198.71:9300"]

```

Or even easier:

```
discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts: ["130.183.198.7","130.183.198.71"]

```

But what do you mean by "master/slave". We don't have that notion in elasticsearch. What kind of problem do you want to solve or do you think you need to solve?

Yes, I changed the port to 9300 but the issue is the same.

I have two virtual machines with one instance of Elasticsearch 5.6.2 on each of them.  
I would like a cluster with two nodes in it. One master mode on one machine and one data node on another.  
The idea is that my indices would furst be put on the master node and the other data node would be synced to the master node in order to have the same indices.

You are misunderstanding how elasticsearch works. There is no master/slave nodes.

But there are primary shards and replica shards which can be allocated on any data node in the cluster.

On a 2 nodes cluster (well you need at least 3 to avoid split brain), you don't need to change any setting like this.

I would start with explicit `network.host` not 0.0.0.0. Someone else might be able to tell you if that should work...

Can you `curl` or `telnet` to port 9200 and 9300 from one VM to the other?

(Also, setting one node to master does not automatically mean that the indices are first created there and then replicated to other nodes. Dedicate master nodes don't even store data.) ... Too slow 😛

I will try the curl and telnet tests.  
I think then that I would like my primary shards on one machine and my replica shards on another.

For telnet, should I do telnet 130.183.198.7 9200 ? Because nothing happens when I do that. The port is probably not open.

This is what I get when using `telnet` and `curl`

If these ports are not accessible between the VMs, Elasticsearch clustering will definitely not work.

And again, Elasticsearch does not work as master - slave the way you hope it to.

From [Node | Elasticsearch Reference [5.6] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/5.6/modules-node.html#master-node)

> The master node is responsible for lightweight cluster-wide actions such as creating or deleting an index, tracking which nodes are part of the cluster, and deciding which shards to allocate to which nodes. It is important for cluster health to have a stable master node.

Forgot to ask, what hypervisor are you using? If the services are running on your VMs then check network security settings. Although, as the VMs are in the same subnet, it really should work without anything.

I am working on a cloud computing service of my institute. I think I will just contact some collegues who manage that. I need to thoroughly check about all these network settings and make sure all the necessary ports are open.

As I said, my plan was just to mirror the index I have on one machine to another machine.

Hello again! I found a way to make a snapshot of my index and copy the backup directory to the other server.

Nonetheless, I would really like to find out how is it possible to make nodes finding each other. All my curl and telnet commands are working, the ssh connections are working too.

I think i will go for the Logstash solution with ES as input and output.  
I will open a new topic in the appropriate category.  
If no-one is able to answer my previous question, then I guess we can close this topic.

The issue is not http communication here, it's the communication between the nodes. It uses port 9300 contrarily to HTTP which uses port 9200. My curls work when I connect with SSH and port forwarding like

ssh -L 9200:localhost:9200 root@

If i do this for port 9300, then my nodes still don't talk to each other.

Here you go. I have two nodes on the same machine so one is running on ports 9200/9300 and the other one in 9201/9301
