In Elasticsearch 5.0.0, by default unquoted field names in JSON will be
rejected. This can cause issues, however, for documents that were
already indexed with unquoted field names. To alleviate this, a system
property has been added that can be enabled so migration can occur.
This system property will be removed in Elasticsearch 6.0.0
Resolves#17674
* Added an extra `field` parameter to the `percolator` query to indicate what percolator field should be used. This must be an existing field in the mapping of type `percolator`.
* The `.percolator` type is now forbidden. (just like any type that starts with a `.`)
This only applies for new indices created on 5.0 and later. Indices created on previous versions the .percolator type is still allowed to exist.
The new `percolator` field type isn't active in such indices and the `PercolatorQueryCache` knows how to load queries from these legacy indices.
The `PercolatorQueryBuilder` will not enforce that the `field` parameter is of type `percolator`.
This makes all numeric fields including `date`, `ip` and `token_count` use
points instead of the inverted index as a lookup structure. This is expected
to perform worse for exact queries, but faster for range queries. It also
requires less storage.
Notes about how the change works:
- Numeric mappers have been split into a legacy version that is essentially
the current mapper, and a new version that uses points, eg.
LegacyDateFieldMapper and DateFieldMapper.
- Since new and old fields have the same names, the decision about which one
to use is made based on the index creation version.
- If you try to force using a legacy field on a new index or a field that uses
points on an old index, you will get an exception.
- IP addresses now support IPv6 via Lucene's InetAddressPoint and store them
in SORTED_SET doc values using the same encoding (fixed length of 16 bytes
and sortable).
- The internal MappedFieldType that is stored by the new mappers does not have
any of the points-related properties set. Instead, it keeps setting the index
options when parsing the `index` property of mappings and does
`if (fieldType.indexOptions() != IndexOptions.NONE) { // add point field }`
when parsing documents.
Known issues that won't fix:
- You can't use numeric fields in significant terms aggregations anymore since
this requires document frequencies, which points do not record.
- Term queries on numeric fields will now return constant scores instead of
giving better scores to the rare values.
Known issues that we could work around (in follow-up PRs, this one is too large
already):
- Range queries on `ip` addresses only work if both the lower and upper bounds
are inclusive (exclusive bounds are not exposed in Lucene). We could either
decide to implement it, or drop range support entirely and tell users to
query subnets using the CIDR notation instead.
- Since IP addresses now use a different representation for doc values,
aggregations will fail when running a terms aggregation on an ip field on a
list of indices that contains both pre-5.0 and 5.0 indices.
- The ip range aggregation does not work on the new ip field. We need to either
implement range aggs for SORTED_SET doc values or drop support for ip ranges
and tell users to use filters instead. #17700Closes#16751Closes#17007Closes#11513
This commit adds a new configuration file jvm.options to centralize and
simplify management of JVM options. This separates the configuration of
the JVM from the packaging scripts (bin/elasticsearch*, bin/service.bat,
and init.d/elasticsearch) simplifying end-user operational management of
custom JVM options.
Both top level and inline inner hits are now covered by InnerHitBuilder.
Although there are differences between top level and inline inner hits,
they now make use of the same builder logic.
The parsing of top level inner hits slightly changed to be more readable.
Before the nested path or parent/child type had to be specified as encapsuting
json object, now these settings are simple fields. Before this was required
to allow streaming parsing of inner hits without missing contextual information.
Once some issues are fixed with inline inner hits (around multi level hierachy of inner hits),
top level inner hits will be deprecated and removed in the next major version.
Today the basic node settings like `node.data` and `node.master` can't really be fully validated
since we allow to specify custom user attributes on the node level. We have to, in order to
support that, add a wildcard setting for `node.*` to let these setting pass validation.
Instead we should require a more contraint prefix like `node.attr.` that defines a namespace
that is reserved for user attributes.
This commit adds a new namespace for attributes in `node.attr`.
Closes#17280
https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/pull/17288 added a check to enforce that the `discovery.zen.minimum_master_nodes` configuration is set when nodes have the `host`, `port`, or `bind_host` set in either `transport` or general `network` configuration sections. This was documented incorrectly as "nodes that are bound to a non-loopback interface", which lead to confusion as I set `network.host: "localhost"` and the check was still failing.
This change updates the docs to detail the actual check. I think it also highlights how complex the check is and the need for a simpler solution.
discovery.zen.minimum_master_nodes is the single most important setting to set on a production cluster. We have no way of supplying a good default so it must be set by the user. Binding a node to a public IP (as opposed to the default local host) is a good enough indication that a node will be part of a production cluster cluster and thus it's a good tradeoff to enforce the settings. Note that nothing prevent users from setting it to 1 in a single node cluster.
Closes#17288
We currently have a `discovery.zen.master_election.filter_client` setting that control whether their ping responses are ignored for master election (which is the current default). With the push to treat client nodes as normal nodes (and promote the transport/rest clients for client work), this should be changed. This commit remove this setting and it's companion `discovery.zen.master_election.filter_data` setting (currently defaulting to false) in favor of singe `discovery.zen.master_election.ignore_non_master_pings` setting with more intuitive name (defaulting to false).
Resolves#17325Closes#17329
The available memory metric was always set to `0` since 2.0.beta1 (bug). was left behind but never set. Turns out the section wasn't that useful, as it would only output the total memory available throughout all nodes in the cluster. We decided to remove the section then.
In #17198, we removed suggest transport action, which
used the `suggest` threadpool to execute requests. Now
`suggest` threadpool is unused and suggest requests are
executed on the `search` threadpool.
Currently if you run an `exists` query on an object, it will resolve all sub
fields and create a disjunction for all those fields. However the `_field_names`
mapper indexes paths for objects so we could query object paths directly.
I also changed the query parser to reject `exists` queries if the `_field_names`
field is disabled since it would be a big performance trap.
In 5.0 we don't allow index settings to be specified on the node level ie.
in yaml files or via commandline argument. This can cause problems during
upgrade if this was used extensively. For instance if analyzers where
specified on a node level this might cause the index to be closed when
imported (see #17187). In such a case all indices relying on this
must be updated via `PUT /${index}/_settings`. Yet, this API has slightly
different semantics since it overrides existing settings. To make this less
painful this change adds a `preserve_existing` parameter on that API to ensure
we have the same semantics as if the setting was applied on the node level.
This change also adds a better error message and a change to the migration guide
to ensure upgrades are smooth if index settings are specified on the node level.
If a index setting is detected this change fails the node startup and prints a message
like this:
```
*************************************************************************************
Found index level settings on node level configuration.
Since elasticsearch 5.x index level settings can NOT be set on the nodes
configuration like the elasticsearch.yaml, in system properties or command line
arguments.In order to upgrade all indices the settings must be updated via the
/${index}/_settings API. Unless all settings are dynamic all indices must be closed
in order to apply the upgradeIndices created in the future should use index templates
to set default values.
Please ensure all required values are updated on all indices by executing:
curl -XPUT 'http://localhost:9200/_all/_settings?preserve_existing=true' -d '{

Also replaced the PercolatorQueryRegistry with the new PercolatorQueryCache.
The PercolatorFieldMapper stores the rewritten form of each percolator query's xcontext
in a binary doc values field. This make sure that the query rewrite happens only during
indexing (some queries for example fetch shapes, terms in remote indices) and
the speed up the loading of the queries in the percolator query cache.
Because the percolator now works inside the search infrastructure a number of features
(sorting fields, pagination, fetch features) are available out of the box.
The following feature requests are automatically implemented via this refactoring:

Today, certain bootstrap properties are set and read via system
properties. This action-at-distance way of managing these properties is
rather confusing, and completely unnecessary. But another problem exists
with setting these as system properties. Namely, these system properties
are interpreted as Elasticsearch settings, not all of which are
registered. This leads to Elasticsearch failing to startup if any of
these special properties are set. Instead, these properties should be
kept as local as possible, and passed around as method parameters where
needed. This eliminates the action-at-distance way of handling these
properties, and eliminates the need to register these non-setting
properties. This commit does exactly that.
Additionally, today we use the "-D" command line flag to set the
properties, but this is confusing because "-D" is a special flag to the
JVM for setting system properties. This creates confusion because some
"-D" properties should be passed via arguments to the JVM (so via
ES_JAVA_OPTS), and some should be passed as arguments to
Elasticsearch. This commit changes the "-D" flag for Elasticsearch
settings to "-E".
This commit adds fields bytes_recovered and files_recovered to the cat
recovery API. These fields, respectively, indicate the total number of
bytes and files recovered. Additionally, for consistency, some totals
fields and translog recovery fields have been renamed.
Closes#17064
Enables the touching of all memory pages used by the JVM heap spaces
during initialization of the HotSpot VM, which commits all memory pages
at initialization time. By default, pages are committed only as they are
needed.
The field name is a required argument for all suggesters, but
it was specified via a field() setter in SuggestionBuilder so far.
This changes field name to being a mandatory constructor argument
and lets suggestion builders throw an error if field name is missing
or the empty string.
ba5be0332d removed support for degrading
to slf4j and j.u.l but didn't document this as a breaking change because
it is only breaking for folks using Elasticsearch's jar as a java client.
People do that so this counts as a breaking change.
Also, if anyone was brave enough to try and replace log4j on an installed
version of Elasticsearch that will no longer work and this documents that
as well. It doens't get a full heading and instead lives with the java
client notes. Mostly because I can't imagine it worked consistently enough
for anyone to actually do it in the first place. We just never tested it
well enough to make sure we didn't break it after it was implemented.
This commit adds a note to the migration docs regarding the reduction of
the Groovy dependencies from the groovy-all artifact to the groovy

Java NIO has the notion of gathering writes. These are writes that
gather data from multiple buffers into a single channel. These gathering
writes in Netty have been enabled by default with the possibility to
disable them using "es.netty.gathering". This flag was added in case
having gathering writes on by default did not work out. We have not
published this ability and sufficient time has passed to render
judgement that using gathering writes is okay.

2.x has show so far that running with security manager is the way to go.
This commit make this non-optional. Users that need to pass their own rules
can still do this via the system configuration for the security manager. They
can even opt out of all security that way.
This commit moves IndicesRequestCache into o.e.indics and makes all API in this
class package private. All references to SearchReqeust, SearchContext etc. have been factored
out and relevant glue code has been added to IndicesService. The IndicesRequestCache is not a
simple class without any hard dependencies on ThreadPool nor SearchService or IndexShard. This now
allows to add unittests.
This commit also removes two settings `indices.requests.cache.clean_interval` and `indices.fielddata.cache.clean_interval`
in favor of `indices.cache.clean_interval` which cleans both caches.
The cat API previously used the Content-Type header field for
determining the media type of the response. This is in opposition to the
HTTP spec which specifies the Accept header field for this purpose. This
commit replaces the use of the Content-Type header field with the Accept
header field in the cat API.
Closes#14421
As a prerequisite for refactoring the whole PhraseSuggestionBuilder
to be able to be parsed and streamed from the coordinating node, the
DirectCandidateGenerator must implement Writeable, be able to parse
a new instance (fromXContent()) and later when transported to the
shard to generate a PhraseSuggestionContext.DirectCandidateGenerator.
Also adding equals/hashCode and tests and moving DirectCandidateGenerator
to its own DirectCandidateGeneratorBuilder class.
This commit limits the `index.translog.sync_interval` to a value not less than `100ms` and
removes the support for fsync on every operation which used to be enabled if `index.translog.sync_interval` was set to `0s`
Now this pr also only schedules an async fsync if the durability is set to `async`. By default not async task is scheduled.
Closes#16152
This commit converts the script mode settings to the new settings
infrastructure. This is a major refactoring of the handling of script
mode settings. This refactoring is necessary because these settings are
determined at runtime based on the registered script engines and the
registered script contexts.
Doc values can now only be enabled by setting `doc_values: true` in the
mappings. Removing this feature also means that we can now fail mapping updates
that try to disable doc values.
Doc values currently default to `true` if the field is indexed and not analyzed.
So setting `index:no` automatically disables doc values, which is not explicit
in the documentation.
This commit makes doc values default to true for numerics, booleans regardless
of whether they are indexed. Not indexed strings still don't have doc values,
since we can't know whether it is rather a text or keyword field. This
potential source of confusion should go away when we split `string` into `text`
and `keyword`.
RescoreBuilder: Add parsing and creating of RescoreSearchContext
Adding the ability to parse from xContent to the rescore builder. Also making RescoreBuilder an abstract base class that encapsulates the window_size setting, with QueryRescoreBuilder as its only implementation at the moment.

This commit modifies the default setting for standard output in the
systemd configuration to the journal instead of /dev/null. This is to
address a user pain point where Elasticsearch would fail to start but
the error message would be sent to standard output and therefore
/dev/null leading to difficult-to-debug situations.
* Cleaned up MapperService#searchFilter(...) and moved it DefaultSearchContext, since it that class was the only user. As part of the cleanup percolate query documents are no longer excluded from the search response.
* Removed resolveClosestNestedObjectMapper(...) method as it was no longer used.
* Removed DocumentTypeListener infrastructure. Before it was used by the percolator and parent/child, but these features no longer use it.
Closes#15924
* Remove remaining 1.x bwc logic.
* Stop storing stored fields and indexed terms. The _parent field's only purpose is to support joins between parent and child type and only storing doc values is sufficient.
* In the mapping the parent field mapper is now known under '{parent}#{child}' key, because this is the field the parent/child join uses too.
* Added new sub fetch phase to lookup that _parent field from doc values field if that is required (before this was fetched from stored _parent field)
* Removed the ability to query directly on `_parent` in the query dsl. Instead the `{parent}#{child}` field should be used. Under the hood a doc values query is used instead of a term query, because only doc values fields are stored now.
* Added a new `parent_id` query to easily query child documents with a specific parent id without having to know what join field to use
* Also in aggregations `_parent` field can't be used any more and `{parent}#{child}` field name should be used instead to aggregate directly on the _parent join field.
This commit modifies the load_average in the node stats API response
to be an object containing the one-minute, five-minute and
fifteen-minute load averages as fields (if those values are
available). Additionally, this commit modifies the cat nodes API
response to format the one-minute, five-minute and fifteen-minute load
averages as null if any of the respective values are not available.
The indexing buffer on a node (default: 10% of the JVM heap) is now a "shared pool" across all shards on that node. This way, shards doing intense indexing can use much more than other shards doing only light indexing, and only once the sum of all indexing buffers across all shards exceeds the node's indexing buffer will we ask shards to move recently indexed documents to segments on disk.
Warmers are now barely useful and will be removed in 3.0. Note that this only
removes the warmer API and query-based warmers. We still have warmers internally
for eg. global ordinals.
Close#15607
* Added percolator field mapper that extracts the query terms and indexes these terms with the percolator query.
* At percolate time these extracted terms are used to query percolator queries that are like to be evaluated. This can significantly cut down the time it takes to percolate. Whereas before all percolator queries were evaluated if they matches with the document being percolated.
* Changes made to percolator queries are no longer immediately visible, a refresh needs to happen before the changes are visible.
* By default the percolate api only returns upto 10 matches instead of returning all matching percolator queries.
* Made percolate more modular, so that it is easier to add unit tests.
* Added unit tests for the percolator.

When specifying a string field, you can either do:
```
{
"foo": "bar"
}
```
or
```
{
"foo": {
"value": "bar",
"boost": 42
}
}
```
The latter option is now removed.
Closes#15388
Today we throttle recoveries only for incoming recoveries. Nodes that have a lot
of primaries can get overloaded due to too many recoveries. To still keep that at bay
we limit the number of threads that are sending files to the target to overcome this problem.
The right solution here is to also throttle the outgoing recoveries that are today unbounded on
the master and don't start the recovery until we have enough resources on both source and target nodes.
The concurrency aspects of the recovery source also added a lot of complexity and additional threadpools
that are hard to configure. This commit removes the concurrent streamns notion completely and sends files
in the thread that drives the recovery simplifying the recovery code considerably.
Outgoing recoveries are not throttled on the master via a allocation decider.
Today we have two variants of translogs for indexing. We only recommend the buffered
one which also has a 20% advantage in indexing speed. This commit removes the option and defaults
to the buffered case. It also hard-wires the translog buffer to 8kb instead of 64kb. We used to
adjust that buffer based on if the shard is active or not, this code has also been removed and
instead we just keep an 8kb buffer arround.
This option allows to force the xcontent type to use to store the `_source`
document. The default is to use the same format as the input format.
This commit makes this option ignored for 2.x indices and rejected for 3.0
indices.
As a replacement use ExistsQueryBuilder inside a mustNot() clause.
So instead of using `new ExistsQueryBuilder(name)` now use:
`new BoolQueryBuilder().mustNot(new ExistsQueryBuilder(name))`.
Closes#14112
throw exception if a copy_to is within a multi field
Copy to within multi field is ignored from 2.0 on, see #10802.
Instead of just ignoring it, we should throw an exception if this
is found in the mapping when a mapping is added. For already
existing indices we should at least log a warning.
We remove the copy_to in any case.

When using S3 or EC2, it was possible to use a proxy to access EC2 or S3 API but username and password were not possible to be set.
This commit adds support for this. Also, to make all that consistent, proxy settings for both plugins have been renamed:
* from `cloud.aws.proxy_host` to `cloud.aws.proxy.host`
* from `cloud.aws.ec2.proxy_host` to `cloud.aws.ec2.proxy.host`
* from `cloud.aws.s3.proxy_host` to `cloud.aws.s3.proxy.host`
* from `cloud.aws.proxy_port` to `cloud.aws.proxy.port`
* from `cloud.aws.ec2.proxy_port` to `cloud.aws.ec2.proxy.port`
* from `cloud.aws.s3.proxy_port` to `cloud.aws.s3.proxy.port`
New settings are `proxy.username` and `proxy.password`.
```yml
cloud:
aws:
protocol: https
proxy:
host: proxy1.company.com
port: 8083
username: myself
password: theBestPasswordEver!
```
You can also set different proxies for `ec2` and `s3`:
```yml
cloud:
aws:
s3:
proxy:
host: proxy1.company.com
port: 8083
username: myself1
password: theBestPasswordEver1!
ec2:
proxy:
host: proxy2.company.com
port: 8083
username: myself2
password: theBestPasswordEver2!
```
Note that `password` is filtered with `SettingsFilter`.
We also fix a potential issue in S3 repository. We were supposed to accept key/secret either set under `cloud.aws` or `cloud.aws.s3` but the actual code never implemented that.
It was:
```java
account = settings.get("cloud.aws.access_key");
key = settings.get("cloud.aws.secret_key");
```
We replaced that by:
```java
String account = settings.get(CLOUD_S3.KEY, settings.get(CLOUD_AWS.KEY));
String key = settings.get(CLOUD_S3.SECRET, settings.get(CLOUD_AWS.SECRET));
```
Also, we extract all settings for S3 in `AwsS3Service` as it's already the case for `AwsEc2Service` class.

We actually want to keep the test when using deprecated setting in 3.0.
We will keep this setting deprecated as well so people will be able to update in a smoother way.
Also add the deprecating information to the migration documentation.
query_binary and filter_binary are unused at this point, as we only parse on the coordinating node and the java api only holds structured java objects for queries and filters, meaning they all implement Writeable and get natively serialized.

We have two types of parse methods for queries: one for the inner query, to be used once the parser is positioned within the query element, and one for the whole query source, including the query element that wraps the actual query.
With the search refactoring we ended up using the former in count, cat count and delete by query, whereas we should have used the former. It ends up working properly given that we have a registered (deprecated) query called "query", which used to allow to wrap a filter into a query, but this has the following downsides:
1) prevents us from removing the deprecated "query" query
2) we end up supporting a top level query that is not wrapped within a query element (pre 1.0 syntax iirc that shouldn't be supported anymore)
This commit finally removes the "query" query and fixes the related parsing bugs. We also had some tests that were providing queries in the wrong format, those have been fixed too.
