Hi Nik,

I found the that I am not able to do decommissioning over multiple nodes. 
I can do decommissioning over a single node.

These cmds below work perfectly for my ES cluster:
"cluster.routing.allocation.exclude._name": "node-1"
"cluster.routing.allocation.exclude._name": "node-2"
"cluster.routing.allocation.exclude._ip": "ip1"
"cluster.routing.allocation.exclude._ip": "ip2"

But none of these cmds below has effect for my ES cluster:
"cluster.routing.allocation.exclude._name": "node-1,node-2"
"cluster.routing.allocation.exclude._name": ["node-1", "node-2"]
"cluster.routing.allocation.exclude._ip": "ip1,ip2"
"cluster.routing.allocation.exclude._ip": "ip1, ip2"

I also notice that extra spaces for "_name" or "_ip" field cause the cmd to 
fail (no effect).
For example, none of these cmds below works. 
"cluster.routing.allocation.exclude._ip": "  ip1 "
"cluster.routing.allocation.exclude._name": "node-1  "

I am running this version of ES on Ubuntu 14.04:
> elasticsearch  -v
Version: 1.4.0, Build: bc94bd8/2014-11-05T14:26:12Z, JVM: 1.8.0_25

I checked release notes of ES 1.4.1 and 1.4.2, and I didn't find some bug 
fixing notes for this "decommissioning over multiple nodes" function.

Is this a bug? Or, I omit something important?


Regards,
Ye
