I am trying to use tags as explained here:
[http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/index-modules-allocation.html](http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/index-modules-allocation.html)
When I add "node.group1: group1" to my elasticsearch.yml file and start es
I get. Is this not how I am supposed to define the groups?
[root@ip-10-80-140-242 ~]# {0.90.6}: Setup Failed ...
- SettingsException[Failed to load settings from
[file:/etc/elasticsearch/elasticsearch.yml]]
ParserException[while parsing a block mapping; expected , but
found BlockMappingStart]

Did you use the quotes in your configuration file? Where did you place the
node attribute exactly?

I figured out the problem eventually. The issue was an extra whitespace in
the begining 🙂
