Hello,
I was trying to add additional role to the existing elasticsearch instance in the elastic cloud. I added node.roles : [remote_cluster_client]
but while saving it throws the below error, could any one help me with this
Hi,
In Elastic Cloud, certain settings are managed by the platform and cannot be modified by users.
Regards
so, we can not change the node.roles settings?
No You cannot change the node roles, but you don't need to to use remote clusters
It is unclear what you're trying to accomplish. Can you tell us at the high level what you're trying to accomplish?
We are trying to configure cross cluster replication
For that you need to contact Elastic Support.
Hi @RajuParipelly

There is no need to contact support to do cross-cluster replication in Elastic Cloud.
Also, you do not need to change node roles.
- You just need to add trust, which is easy to do in the Elastic Cloud UI
- And then, you add remote clusters.
I suggest you read these docs.
By default, the appropriate nodes have the correct node roles and support remote clusters roles.
Example
GET _cat/nodes
10.44.0.110 56 75 4 1.52 1.67 1.81 himrst - instance-0000000110
.......................................^ The 'r' means remote
10.44.1.150 19 67 13 0.61 0.73 0.96 lr - instance-0000000107
10.44.2.130 64 80 4 1.25 1.56 1.80 himrst * instance-0000000108
10.44.0.144 20 71 2 0.31 0.63 0.63 f - instance-0000000105
10.44.0.198 44 77 5 1.50 1.05 1.25 himrst - instance-0000000109
And to be clear, specific license levels are required depending on what you want to do.

Platinum for Replication in the Same Region
Enterprise for Replication across Region
You can do all this without contacting support... of course you can contact support if you wish.
