Hello,

I am trying to set up a tribe node. My elasticsearch.yml is as below. Elastic search version is 2.2.0:

tribe:

t1:  
[cluster.name](http://cluster.name): pr\_site  
discovery.zen.ping.multicast.enabled: false  
discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts: ["192.168.192.131:9200"]  
t2:  
[cluster.name](http://cluster.name): ha\_site  
discovery.zen.ping.multicast.enabled: false  
discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts: ["192.168.192.195:9200"]

# tribe.on\_conflict: prefer\_t1

# 

**elasticsearch is not getting started due to the below error:**

Exception in thread "main" SettingsException[Failed to load settings from [elasticsearch.yml]]; nested: ElasticsearchParseException[duplicate settings key [[cluster.name](http://cluster.name)] found at line number [106], column number [15], previous value [pr\_site], current value [ha\_site]];

</div>

Now the earlier error is gone, by re-aligning the text in elasticsearch.yml in tribe as below:  
t1:  
[cluster.name](http://cluster.name): pr\_site  
t2:  
[cluster.name](http://cluster.name): ha\_site

But while starting Kibana I am getting the error -- Unable to create Kibana index ".Kibana". Please help.

Is tribe a full proof feature for production?
