Hi All,
I have a question regarding the re-balancing of shards on es nodes. Let’s suppose that we have 3 es nodes with 5 indices (each index has 5 shards and one replica). So the total 50 shards will be distributed over 3 nodes initially. If for some reason (may be due to network issue or the es process on the node is killed) one node goes out of the cluster then the rest of the 2 nodes will start re-balancing the missing shards. Is my understanding correct? Is there any configuration to direct es not to start re-balancing immediately but to wait for some configured time? For example, the following configuration can be used to introduce delay or wait time during the full cluster restart: gateway.recovery_after_nodes gateway.recovery_after_time gateway.expected_nodes I am looking for similar parameters to introduce similar type of delay time during temporary unavailability of one node in the whole cluster. Thank you in advance. Best, Ashutosh -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
