Hello everyone,

I recently maj my logstash to the latest version (version 1.x to 2.3.1).

My configuration is :  
`output { stdout { codec => rubydebug } elasticsearch { cluster my_cluster_name} }`

So, i have the error :  
Unknown setting 'cluster' for elasticsearch {:level=\>:error}

I read this [documentation](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/current/plugins-outputs-elasticsearch.html), but i dont find how i can indicate my cluster name ?

Thank you

Starting in Logstash 2.0 the elasticsearch output always uses HTTP (which prior to 2.0 was optional via `protocol => "http"`). When using HTTP the cluster name is irrelevant and you instead need to point to one or more cluster nodes with the `hosts` option.

OK, thank, i found my problem.

I have a older version in running... (no rpm with older version)

Now, when i made curl [http://localhost:9200/](http://localhost:9200/), the cluster name is good.
