This commit changes the default out-of-the-box configuration for the
number of shards from five to one. We think this will help address a
common problem of oversharding. For users with time-based indices that
need a different default, this can be managed with index templates. For
users with non-time-based indices that find they need to re-shard with
the split API in place they no longer need to resort only to
reindexing.
Since this has the impact of changing the default number of shards used
in REST tests, we want to ensure that we still have coverage for issues
that could arise from multiple shards. As such, we randomize (rarely)
the default number of shards in REST tests to two. This is managed via a
global index template. However, some tests check the templates that are
in the cluster state during the test. Since this template is randomly
there, we need a way for tests to skip adding the template used to set
the number of shards to two. For this we add the default_shards feature
skip. To avoid having to write our docs in a complicated way because
sometimes they might be behind one shard, and sometimes they might be
behind two shards we apply the default_shards feature skip to all docs
tests. That is, these tests will always run with the default number of
shards (one).
We had been using `task_id:1` or `taskId:1` because it is parses as a
valid task identifier but the `:1` part is confusing. This replaces
those examples with `task_id` which matches the response from the list
tasks API.
Closes#28314
Currently, the only way to get the REST response for the `/_cluster/state`
call to return the `cluster_uuid` is to request the `metadata` metrics,
which is one of the most expensive response structures. However, external
monitoring agents will likely want the `cluster_uuid` to correlate the
response with other API responses whether or not they want cluster
metadata.
Add yet another warning about data loss to the introductory paragraph about the
unsafe commands. Also move this paragraph next to the details of the unsafe
commands, below the section on the `retry_failed` flag.
Be more specific about how to use the URI parameters and in-body flags.
Clarify statements about when rebalancing takes place (i.e. it respects

Resolves#16113.
This commit adds the distribution type to the startup scripts so that we
can discern from log output and the main response the type of the
distribution (deb/rpm/tar/zip).
The suggest stats were folded into the search stats as part of the
indices stats API in 5.0.0. However, the suggest metric remained as a
synonym for the search metric for BWC reasons. This commit deprecates
usage of the suggest metric on the indices stats API.
Similarly, due to the changes to fold the suggest stats into the search
stats, requesting the suggest index metric on the indices metric on the
nodes stats API has produced an empty object as the response since
5.0.0. This commit deprecates this index metric on the indices metric on
the nodes stats API.
The node stats API enables filtlering the top-level stats for only
desired top-level stats. Yet, this was never enabled for adaptive
replica selection stats. This commit enables this. We also add setting
these stats on the request builder, and fix an inconsistent name in a
setter.

Changing this to a * to match all nodes seems to fix the test
Today Cross Cluster Search requires at least one node in each remote cluster to be up once the cross cluster search is run. Otherwise the whole search request fails despite some of the data (either local and/or remote) is available. This happens when performing the _search/shards calls to find out which remote shards the query has to be executed on. This scenario is different from shard failures that may happen later on when the query is actually executed, in case e.g. remote shards are missing, which is not going to fail the whole request but rather yield partial results, and the _shards section in the response will indicate that.
This commit introduces a boolean setting per cluster called search.remote.$cluster_alias.skip_if_disconnected, set to false by default, which allows to skip certain clusters if they are down when trying to reach them through a cross cluster search requests. By default all clusters are mandatory.
Scroll requests support such setting too when they are first initiated (first search request with scroll parameter), but subsequent scroll rounds (_search/scroll endpoint) will fail if some of the remote clusters went down meanwhile.
The search API response contains now a new _clusters section, similar to the _shards section, that gets returned whenever one or more clusters were disconnected and got skipped:
"_clusters" : {
"total" : 3,
"successful" : 2,
"skipped" : 1
}
Such section won't be part of the response if no clusters have been skipped.
The per cluster skip_unavailable setting value has also been added to the output of the remote/info API.
This change adds cgroup memory usage/limit to the OS stats section of
the node stats on Linux. This information is useful because in Docker
containers the standard node stats report the host memory limit, not
taking account of extra restrictions that may have been applied to the
container.
The original idea was to store these values as Long, truncating any values
outside the range of long. However, this meant that in the relatively common
case of no limit being applied, users would not see the same value in the OS
stats as they see by querying Linux directly. So instead the values are stored
as String. This change places a burden on consumers of the strings to
convert the strings to numbers and decide what to do about extremely large
values, but there will be very few consumers and they would need to have a
policy for dealing with "no limit" in any case.
This commit removes an outdated reference to http_address in the nodes
info docs. This information is available in the http object for each
node in the nodes info API response.

* Adds nodes usage API to monitor usages of actions
The nodes usage API has 2 main endpoints
/_nodes/usage and /_nodes/{nodeIds}/usage return the usage statistics
for all nodes and the specified node(s) respectively.
At the moment only one type of usage statistics is available, the REST
actions usage. This records the number of times each REST action class is
called and when the nodes usage api is called will return a map of rest
action class name to long representing the number of times each of the action
classes has been called.
Still to do:
* [x] Create usage service to store usage statistics
* [x] Record usage in REST layer
* [x] Add Transport Actions
* [x] Add REST Actions
* [x] Tests
* [x] Documentation
* Rafactors UsageService so counts are done by the handlers
* Fixing up docs tests
* Adds a name to all rest actions
* Addresses review comments
This commit adds the size of the cluster state to the response for the
get cluster state API call (GET /_cluster/state). The size that is
returned is the size of the full cluster state in bytes when compressed.
This is the same size of the full cluster state when serialized to
transmit over the network. Specifying the ?human flag displays the
compressed size in a more human friendly manner. Note that even if the
cluster state request filters items from the cluster state (so a subset
of the cluster state is returned), the size that is returned is the
compressed size of the entire cluster state.

* cluster/reroute: Marked as CONSOLE but skipped because the docs
build runs with a single node.
* docs/bulk: Marked as NOTCONSOLE because the snippets describe
either examples or `curl` commands. Fixed the `curl` command to
include the `Content-Type` header.
* query-dsl/terms-query: Marked as CONSOLE.
* search/request/rescore: Marked as CONSOLE. Fixed deprecated

On some systems, cgroups will be available but not configured. And in
some cases, cgroups will be configured, but not for the subsystems that
we are expecting (e.g., cpu and cpuacct). This commit strengthens the
handling of cgroup stats on such systems.
Relates #21094
Today when parsing a request, Elasticsearch silently ignores incorrect
(including parameters with typos) or unused parameters. This is bad as
it leads to requests having unintended behavior (e.g., if a user hits
the _analyze API and misspell the "tokenizer" then Elasticsearch will
just use the standard analyzer, completely against intentions).
This commit removes lenient URL parameter parsing. The strategy is
simple: when a request is handled and a parameter is touched, we mark it
as such. Before the request is actually executed, we check to ensure
that all parameters have been consumed. If there are remaining
parameters yet to be consumed, we fail the request with a list of the
unconsumed parameters. An exception has to be made for parameters that
format the response (as opposed to controlling the request); for this
case, handlers are able to provide a list of parameters that should be
excluded from tripping the unconsumed parameters check because those
parameters will be used in formatting the response.
Additionally, some inconsistencies between the parameters in the code
and in the docs are corrected.

* Add `// CONSOLE` to check-running
* Fix version in some snippets
* Mark groovy snippets as groovy
* Fix versions in plugins
* Fix language marker errors
* Fix language parsing in snippets
This adds support for snippets who's language is written like
`[source, txt]` and `["source","js",subs="attributes,callouts"]`.
This also makes language required for snippets which is nice because
then we can be sure we can grep for snippets in a particular language.
The mem section was buggy in cluster stats and removed. It is now added back with the same structure as in node stats, containing total memory, available memory, used memory and percentages. All the values are the sum of all the nodes across the cluster (or at least the ones that we were able to get the values from).
* Params improvements to Cluster Health API wait for shards
Previously, the cluster health API used a strictly numeric value
for `wait_for_active_shards`. However, with the introduction of
ActiveShardCount and the removal of write consistency level for
replication operations, `wait_for_active_shards` is used for
write operations to represent values for ActiveShardCount. This
commit moves the cluster health API's usage of `wait_for_active_shards`
to be consistent with its usage in the write operation APIs.
This commit also changes `wait_for_relocating_shards` from a
numeric value to a simple boolean value `wait_for_no_relocating_shards`
to set whether the cluster health operation should wait for
all relocating shards to complete relocation.
* Addresses code review comments
* Don't be lenient if `wait_for_relocating_shards` is set
