* Merged segments are now warmed-up at the end of the merge operation instead
of _refresh, so that _refresh doesn't pay the price for the warm-up of merged
segments, which is often higher than flushed segments because of their size.
* Even when no _warmer is registered, some basic warm-up of the segments is
performed: norms, doc values (_version). This should help a bit people who
forget to register warmers.
* Eager loading support for the parent id cache and field data: when one
can't predict what terms will be present in the index, it is tempting to use
a match_all query in a warmer, but in that case, query execution might not be
much faster than field data loading so having a warmer that only loads field
data without running a query can be useful.
Closes#3819
Stats can be retrieved on a per-feature / per-component basis including the fields
they apply to. This commit add support for a 'completion' flag to include statistics
for the complition feature as well as 'completion_fields' to only
include certain fields into the returned statistics.
To disambiguate between 'fielddata' and 'completion' fields this commit
uses 'fields' as the default inclusion filter for stats fields only used
if not dedicated '[completion|fielddata]_fields' paramter is provided.
Relates to #3522
Add a dedicated suggest thread pool for the suggest API. With the new completion suggest type, which is purely CPU bounded, it makes more sense to have a dedicated thread pool for suggest compared to having it share the search thread pool and "competing" against other search operations.
closes#3698
Refresh flag in optimize is problematic, since the shards refresh is allowed to execute on is different compared to the optimize shards. In order to do optimize and then refresh, they should be executed as separate APIs when needed.
closes#3690
Refresh flag in flush is problematic, since the shards refresh is allowed to execute on is different compared to the flush shards. In order to do flush and then refresh, they should be executed as separate APIs when needed.
closes#3689
/_template shows: No handler found for uri [/_template] and method [GET]
It would make sense to list the templates as they are listed in the /_cluster/state call.
Closes#2532.
The clear scroll api allows clear all resources associated with a `scroll_id` by deleting the `scroll_id` and its associated SearchContext.
Closes#3657
Now with have proper exit codes for elasticsearch plugin manager (see #3463), we can add a silent mode to plugin manager.
```sh
bin/plugin --install karmi/elasticsearch-paramedic --silent
```
Closes#3628.
When installing a plugin, we use:
```sh
bin/plugin --install groupid/artifactid/version
```
But when removing the plugin, we only support:
```sh
bin/plugin --remove dirname
```
where `dirname` is the directory name of the plugin under `/plugins` dir.
Closes#3421.
This commit adds two main pieces, the first is a ClusterInfoService
that provides a service running on the master nodes that fetches the
total/free bytes for each data node in the cluster as well as the
sizes of all shards in the cluster. This information is gathered by
default every 30 seconds, and can be changed dynamically by setting
the `cluster.info.update.interval` setting. This ClusterInfoService
can hopefully be used in the future to weight nodes for allocation
based on their disk usage, if desired.
The second main piece is the DiskThresholdDecider, which can disallow
a shard from being allocated to a node, or from remaining on the node
depending on configuration parameters. There are three main
configuration parameters for the DiskThresholdDecider:
`cluster.routing.allocation.disk.threshold_enabled` controls whether
the decider is enabled. It defaults to false (disabled). Note that the
decider is also disabled for clusters with only a single data node.
`cluster.routing.allocation.disk.watermark.low` controls the low
watermark for disk usage. It defaults to 0.70, meaning ES will not
allocate new shards to nodes once they have more than 70% disk
used. It can also be set to an absolute byte value (like 500mb) to
prevent ES from allocating shards if less than the configured amount
of space is available.
`cluster.routing.allocation.disk.watermark.high` controls the high
watermark. It defaults to 0.85, meaning ES will attempt to relocate
shards to another node if the node disk usage rises above 85%. It can
also be set to an absolute byte value (similar to the low watermark)
to relocate shards once less than the configured amount of space is
available on the node.
Closes#3480
