==== Cluster state updates
The master node is the only node in a cluster that can make changes to the
cluster state. The master node processes one cluster state update at a time,
applies the required changes and publishes the updated cluster state to all
the other nodes in the cluster. Each node receives the publish message,
updates its own cluster state and replies to the master node, which waits for
all nodes to respond, up to a timeout, before going ahead processing the next
updates in the queue. The `discovery.zen.publish_timeout` is set by default
to 30 seconds and can be changed dynamically through the
<<cluster-update-settings,cluster update settings api>>.
