Hi,

I send MyClusterHealthRequest and get response with red status.  
But head plugins show it's green status.

I captured my screen, so that you could know it more clearly.

Could someone tell me the main reason ?

Thanks in advance.

Sang Dang.

It looks like your query in timed out for some reason. What does curl  
localhost:9200/\_cluster/health say?

Yeah, it took many time. I would think it's time out error.

Here is the result of /\_cluster/health

{  
"cluster\_name" : "es\_zs\_dev",  
"status" : "green",  
"timed\_out" : false,  
"number\_of\_nodes" : 1,  
"number\_of\_data\_nodes" : 1,  
"active\_primary\_shards" : 15,  
"active\_shards" : 15,  
"relocating\_shards" : 0,  
"initializing\_shards" : 0,  
"unassigned\_shards" : 0  
}

I just got this problem only one this dev server. on live server, it works  
well.
