Hello, I'm running a small server with logstash, ES, Kibana. Tonight, I've restarted my ES process. Very bad idea: it restarted with lots of errors, and finally "lost" all its data. Basically, before restart, I've had:
elasticsearch/nodes/0/indices/logstash-2014.* elasticsearch/nodes/0/_state/ after restart, I've had: elasticsearch/nodes/0/indices/logstash-2014.* elasticsearch/nodes/0/_state/ elasticsearch/nodes/1/indices/logstash-2014.05.01 elasticsearch/nodes/1/_state/ Then, Kibana was not able to find anything (dashboards lost, etc.). I've stopped Logstash, stopped Elasticsearch, waited a bit and checked everything is down, then restarted ES. It looked OK, then I've restarted Logstash, and I was able to access my dashboards again. I've just lost 15 minutes of data. Now I can see that elasticsearch/nodes/0 is the current working directory, and I can browse old data and current data. elasticsearch/nodes/1 is not used anymore. I'm running FreeBSD, and used the service command to restart ES. When attempting the second shutdown, the script wouldn't find the pid file, so I've had to kill the Java process. I don't understand what happened. But I don't feel comfortable putting ES in production. Full log for first and second restart here: <http://patpro.net/elastic.log> Any idea?
