Hi all, I am currently running elasticsearch 7.2 on an ubuntu server. And I faced some weird behavior that I don't know what to do. Here is some background I change the default data path to a newly added hard drive. And everything works fine. And here is what happened. old data: the old data located in the default data path before I change the path. new data: the data I modified after I change the path. updated data: the data I modified after the data disappear. 1. action: update from 7.1.1 to 7.2 & reboot event: the whole elaticsearh folder in the new hard drive is gone. data in the folder: nothing. 1. action: rsync the old data to the new folder data in the folder: old data. 1. action: update the data data in the folder: updated data 1. action: reboot event: updated data is gone and the data in the folder is back to old data data in the folder: old data But after the I reboot a few times but there is no data lost again. I am very confused so any suggestions will be welcomed. ---
