Now, if we start two more nodes with `node.rack_id` set to `rack_two`,
Elasticsearch will move shards across to the new nodes, ensuring (if possible)
that the primary and replica shards are never in the same rack.
that no two copies of the same shard will be in the same rack. However if `rack_two`
were to fail, taking down both of its nodes, Elasticsearch will still allocate the lost
shard copies to nodes in `rack_one`.
