|
|
|
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/Documentation/sysctl/vm.txt[linux kernel documentation]

about `max_map_count`. This is set via `sysctl` before starting

`RESTART_ON_UPGRADE`::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Configure restart on package upgrade, defaults to `false`. This means you
|
|
|
|
will have to restart your elasticsearch instance after installing a
|
|
|
|
package manually. The reason for this is to ensure, that upgrades in a
|
|
|
|
cluster do not result in a continuous shard reallocation resulting in high
|
|
|
|
network traffic and reducing the response times of your cluster.
