think that the master has failed. In this case the node will simply hear from
other nodes about the currently active master.
If `discovery.zen.master_election.filter_client` is `true`, pings from client nodes (nodes where `node.client` is
`true`, or both `node.data` and `node.master` are `false`) are ignored during master election; the default value is
`true`. If `discovery.zen.master_election.filter_data` is `true`, pings from non-master-eligible data nodes (nodes
where `node.data` is `true` and `node.master` is `false`) are ignored during master election; the default value is
`false`. Pings from master-eligible nodes are always observed during master election.
Nodes can be excluded from becoming a master by setting `node.master` to
`false`. Note, once a node is a client node (`node.client` set to
`true`), it will not be allowed to become a master (`node.master` is
