Is there any way to configure a maximum storage size to attribute to each nodes of my cluster ?  
I have three nodes server some index with 3 shards other with 2 shards.  
I would like to attribute a maximum storage size in one node server (example: 10GB) and keep the rest of my storage for other stuffs.

Is it possible ?

You can probably look at [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/6.2/disk-allocator.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/6.2/disk-allocator.html) but it's a cluster setting not a node setting so it will be "global" for all nodes.
