Hi Shay,
I was trying to figure out what is stored by local gateway. I read one of your messages saying that work is used but it turned out to be this is the case in earlier versions.
Confusion about work directory is resolved. But I still don't understand how local gateway works.
Isn't data directory considered as 'transient'? How local disk (data directory) can be used for long term persistence storage?
Thanks,
Ahmet

That page explains that data is where data is stored. work is used for what is explained there, its the "tmp" of elasticsearch. Its not used much.
Though, a lot of versions ago, the data used to be stored under work, but that has changed to data, maybe thats where the confusion is coming from.

Hi,
I think Ahmet is referring to the "work" directory mentioned on
Elasticsearch Platform — Find real-time answers at scale | Elastic and
wondering when that dir is created and what exactly is in it.

Each node stores the data under the data directory. By default, the local
gateway is used, even when you don't enable the below settings.

Hello,
I am using version 0.17.1.
I activated local gateway in elasticsearch.yml file as follows:
Gateway Settings
gateway:
recover_after_nodes: 1
recover_after_time: 5m
expected_nodes: 2
I read somewhere that file system location (used by local gateway) is the
work location by default.
So I was expecting work directory is created under $ES_HOME. But it
didn't.
I thought that some files (used to recover cluster state etc ) will be
there.
Am I missing something here?
Where I can find more information about local gateway?
How do I make sure ES gateway is working correctly?
Thanks,
Ahmet
