I was able to add a 3 new ES node on my local ubuntu linux machine using this command (bin/elasticsearch -Des.node.data=false -Des.node.master=true -Des.node.name=NoData) but when i attempt to create another node using the same command on a xen centos vm, i faild. i found that it create a folder for the node which contains node.lock file but i could not see it using (curl -XGET '[http://localhost:9200/\_cluster/nodes?pretty=true](http://localhost:9200/_cluster/nodes?pretty=true)'). Is there any solution? -- ---
