Running an elasticsearch Node in Rackspace

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

I've looked thru the mailing list, but I haven't been able to find the answer -- is there any way of running an elasticsearch node + a client node (not TransportClient) on the same machine in Rackspace? Currently TransportClient hangs, and the Client Node does not discover the non-client Node on the same machine.

Thanks,
JP

This is how I got it to work (no autodiscovery):

# elasticsearch.yml
cluster:
name: node_group_name

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

boostrap:
mlockall: true

network:
host: this_node_name

gateway:
type: local
recover_after_nodes: 2
recover_after_time: 5m
expected_nodes: 2

discovery:
zen:
ping:
unicast:
hosts:
"other_node_name:9300"

Hope that helps,

Heya,

If you are running just on a single node, make sure elasticsearch binds and publishes the correct host. Its there in the logs / console when you start it up. If not, set network.host (as suggested) accordingly.

Also, if you plan to have several nodes running, you will need to use unicast discovery.
