Hello, Need help !! I am trying to setup a 3 Master,Data nodes and 1 ingest node. I have done the below configuration. elasticsearch service is starting but i dont see any logs in elasticsearch.log file. * * * ## [INFO][o.e.n.Node] [elastic1] stopping ... [INFO][o.e.x.m.p.l.CppLogMessageHandler] [elastic1] [controller/928392] [Main.cc@154] ML controller exiting [INFO][o.e.x.m.p.NativeController] [elastic1] Native controller process has stopped - no new native processes can be started [INFO][o.e.x.w.WatcherService] [elastic1] stopping watch service, reason [shutdown initiated] [INFO][o.e.x.w.WatcherLifeCycleService] [elastic1] watcher has stopped and shutdown [INFO][o.e.n.Node] [elastic1] stopped [INFO][o.e.n.Node] [elastic1] closing ... [INFO][o.e.n.Node] [elastic1] closed To test..I tried configuring individual elasticsearch host. this time elasticsearch works as independent host and logs will be generating as below.

Please try to reformat your input as code. This improves readability a lot. As a side note: Don't start with security/tls right away. If you're not used to working with Elasticsearch this adds an extra layer of complexity. Try it with a test setup and when you gathered some experience, use that to set up the production cluster. This looks like you enable `ssl` but did not provide any certificates. ---
