Hi, Let's say we have an index with five shards and 0 replicas. I have 2 nodes. Node 1 has 3 shards and node 2 has 2 shards. In such a setup, wil all queries arriving on either machine still work successfully? Do Node1 and Node2 talk to each other if they do not find the data in their own nodes? -- Debayan Banerjee devOps engineer -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

When you run a query, the Node which receives the request will try to locate all shards and run the query on those wherever they are located. -- David 😉 Twitter : @dadoonet / @elasticsearchfr / @scrutmydocs > Le 10 avr. 2015 à 11:47, Debayan Banerjee [debayan.banerjee@paytm.com](mailto:debayan.banerjee@paytm.com) a écrit : > > Hi, > > Let's say we have an index with five shards and 0 replicas.

Alright, thanks! Actually I was able to verify this by running the same query on both nodes!
