This setting was missing from the docs, so I added it. However, I also
completely rewrote the nodes documentation page because it was mostly
talking about client nodes with some issues, without ever discussing
master nodes, or even tribe nodes. All nodes should be listed on a
"nodes" documentation page.
Fixes#15903Fixed#14429
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.
This makes some minor improvements (does not fix all problems!)
It reorders unicast disco in elasticsearch.yml to be right after the network host,
for better locality.
It removes the warning (unreleased) about publish addresses, lets try to really discourage setting
that unless you need to (behind a proxy server). Most people should be fine with `network.host`
Finally it reorganizes the network docs page a bit:
We add a table of 4 "basic" settings at the very beginning:
* network.host
* discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts
* http.port
* transport.tcp.port
The first two being the most important, which addresses to bind and talk to, and the other two
being the port numbers.
The rest of the stuff I tried to simplify and reorder under "advanced" headers.
This is just a quick stab, I still think we need more effort into this thing, but we gotta start somewhere.
This commit forbids the changing of thread pool types for any thread
pool. The motivation here is that these are expert settings with
little practical advantage.
Closes#14294, relates #2509, relates #2858, relates #5152
* Allow for multiple host specifications (e.g. _en0_,192.168.1.2,_site_).
* Add _site_ and _global_ scopes as counterparts to _local_.
* Warn on heuristic selection of publish address.
* Remove the arbitrary _non_loopback_ setting.
Closes#13954
When running in GCE platform, an instance has access to:
http://metadata.google.internal/computeMetadata/v1/instance/network-interfaces/0/ip
Which gives back the private IP address, for example `10.240.0.2`.
http://metadata.google.internal/computeMetadata/v1/instance/network-interfaces/0/externalIp
Gives back the public Ip address, for example `130.211.108.21`.
As we have for `ec2`, we can support new network host settings:
* `_gce:privateIp:X_`: The private IP address of the machine for a given network interface.
* `_gce:hostname_`: The hostname of the machine.
* `_gce_`: Same as `_gce:privateIp:0_` (recommended).
Closes#13605.
Closes#13590.
BTW resolveIfPossible now throws IOException so code is also updated for ec2 discovery and
some basic tests have been added.
With 2.0, we now bind to `localhost` by default instead of binding to the network card and use its IP address.
When the discovery plugin gets from AWS API the list of nodes that should form the cluster, this list is pinged then. But as each node is bound to `localhost`, ping does not get an answer and the node elects itself as the master node.
`network.host` must be set.
Closes#13589.
Until now we had a cloud-azure plugin which is providing 3 distinct features:
* discovery on Azure
* snapshot/restore on Aure
* SMB store
This commit splits the plugin by feature so people can use either one or the other or both features.
Doc is updated accordingly.
