Hi, When I was doing some experiments on my Elasticsearch cluster, I found that cluster cannot assign replicas of a shards on the node which have a new version of Elasticsearch (1.4.1). I have seen this before and I can fix this by upgrading old nodes. But, I am wondering that if there is a way to fix this issue without upgrade. Is there any idea or a solution? Thanks, Umutcan PS: Other nodes in the cluster have Elasticsearch 1.4. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

Are you sure you are not running low on disk space? If you have less than 15% free, elasticsearch won’t allocate replicas. -- David Pilato | Technical Advocate | [Elasticsearch.com](http://Elasticsearch.com) @dadoonet [https://twitter.com/dadoonet](https://twitter.com/dadoonet) | @elasticsearchfr [https://twitter.com/elasticsearchfr](https://twitter.com/elasticsearchfr) | @scrutmydocs [https://twitter.com/scrutmydocs](https://twitter.com/scrutmydocs) > Le 1 déc. 2014 à 09:21, Umutcan [umutcan@gamegos.com](mailto:umutcan@gamegos.com) a écrit : > > Hi, > > When I was doing some experiments on my Elasticsearch cluster, I found that cluster cannot assign replicas of a shards on the node which have a new version of Elasticsearch (1.4.1).

Yes, I am sure that there is enough disk space. Also, I have tested before that I can solve this by upgrading other nodes.
