Setting up ElasticSearch Cluster on Windows

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

I'm trying to set up an ES cluster on three Windows hosts. Those hosts are currently offline, and I cannot extract screenshots.

All three nodes have the following elasticsearch.yml:

bootstrap.memory_lock: false
cluster.name: elasticsearch
http.port: 9200
node.master: true
node.data: true
node.max_local_storage_nodes: 1
node.name: server1
path.data: C:\ProgramData\Elastic\Elasticsearch\data
path.logs: C:\ProgramData\Elastic\Elasticsearch\logs
transport.tcp.port: 9300

xpack.license.self_generated.type: basic
xpack.security.enabled: false
network.host: 127.0.0.1
discover.zen.ping.unicast.hosts: ["IP1(to replace the actual IP)", "IP2", "IP3"]
cluster.initial_master_nodes: ["IP1(to replace the actual IP)", "IP2", "IP3"]

A connection error is thrown and a warning shows up with the following text:

master not discovered yet, this node has not previously joined a bootstrapped (v7+) cluster

Any advice? Also, are there any Windows specific steps I might follow?

(I'm sorry for not being able to extract the error logs)

Your nodes can't communicate as you are binding each node into licalhost IP
Use network.host: site

Thank you for your response. What should I put in place of site?

4

you can use "site" to bind on any IP adresse or use explicit IP adresse like what you did for seeds

5

Check some network config here

So just to make sure that I understand: in this case, on server1 with IP1, the network.host will be IP1?

yes,

Hi there,

I have deleted the contents of the data folder and changed the config as specified in your message. How do I check that the node is running now? Also, how can I verify that the cluster contains three nodes?
