I am running Elasticsearch 2.1.1 and amattemting to rename my cluster but seem to be missing something. This is what I have tried so far: Stop logstash Stop elasticsearch edit /etc/elasticsearch/elasticsearch.yml uncomment and change [cluster.name](http://cluster.name): my-application to [cluster.name](http://cluster.name): NonProdLogs mv /elastic/data/elasticsearch /elastic/data/NonProdLogs start elasticsearch I see the following in my elasticsearch log: [2016-02-25 10:24:48,107][INFO][node] [Bes] stopping ...

I tried running through this a couple more times and it seems like it is working now with the new cluster name and my data / indices are present. I'm not sure how to mark this a non-problem ---
