==== `:` is no longer allowed in cluster name
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Due to cross-cluster search using `:` to separate a cluster and index name,
|
|
|
|
cluster names may no longer contain `:`.

==== New default for `wait_for_active_shards` parameter of the open index command
|
2017-09-22 10:19:04 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The default value for the `wait_for_active_shards` parameter of the open index API
|
|
|
|
is changed from 0 to 1, which means that the command will now by default wait for all
|
|
|
|
primary shards of the opened index to be allocated.

==== Shard preferences `_primary`, `_primary_first`, `_replica`, and `_replica_first` are removed
|
|
|
|
These shard preferences are removed in favour of the `_prefer_nodes` and `_only_nodes` preferences.

==== Cluster-wide shard soft limit
|
|
|
|
Clusters now have soft limits on the total number of open shards in the cluster
|
|
|
|
based on the number of nodes and the `cluster.max_shards_per_node` cluster
|
|
|
|
setting, to prevent accidental operations that would destabilize the cluster.
