Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

Hi,

How can I know if a certain node has the primary or replica shard?
I'm doing tests with the forced awareness settings and need to know if it
works.

Thanks

The Indice Status APIhttp://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/api/admin-indices-status.htmlis what you are looking for:

{
"ok": true,
"_shards": {
"total": 2,
"successful": 2,
"failed": 0
},
"indices": {
"test": {

           [...]

     "shards": {
        "0": [
           {
              "routing": {
                 "state": "STARTED",
                 "primary": true,
                 "node": "sLz81D7QSr-rdlqr8lAGKA",
                 "relocating_node": null,
                 "shard": 0,

Try this:

% curl -s download.elasticsearch.org/es2unix/es >es; chmod +x es
% ./es shards

The output is easier to parse visually than json. From
GitHub - elastic/es2unix: Command-line ES.
