Extend CAST to support all data types notations (whether SQL or ES
specific)
Fix#40282
(cherry picked from commit eb2ee8a344da946920598839a5db76c8bb9bc3fe)
This commit expands the ccr overview page to include more information
about the lifecycle of following an index. It adds information linking
to the remote recovery documentation. And describes how an index can
fall-behind and how to fix it when this happens.
This is the equivalent of the `field_masking_span` query, allowing users to
merge intervals from multiple fields - for example, to search for stemmed tokens
near unstemmed tokens.
This change adds an option to convert a `date` field to nanoseconds resolution
and a `date_nanos` field to millisecond resolution when sorting.
The resolution of the sort can be set using the `numeric_type` option of the
field sort builder. The conversion is done at the shard level and is restricted
to dates from 1970 to 2262 for the nanoseconds resolution in order to avoid
numeric overflow.
The new cluster coordination subsystem introduced in 7.0 will only keep an
unresponsive node in the cluster for 30 seconds, whereas in earlier versions it
might have remained in the cluster for 90 seconds. This commit adds a note to
the migration documentation to that effect.
This commit clarifies how the gateway selection works when configuring
remote clusters for CCR or CCS. Specifically, it clarifies compatibility
between different versions which is a very common question.
The Migration Assistance API has been functionally replaced by the
Deprecation Info API, and the Migration Upgrade API is not used for the
transition from ES 6.x to 7.x, and does not need to be kept around to
repair indices that were not properly upgraded before upgrading the
cluster, as was the case in 6.
For cases where fields can have multi values, allow the behavior to be
customized through a dedicated configuration field.
By default this will be enabled on the drivers so that existing datasets
work instead of throwing an exception.
For regular SQL usage, the behavior is false so that the user is aware
of the underlying data.
Fix#39700
(cherry picked from commit 2b351571961f172fd59290ee079126bbd081ceaf)
The `GET /_cluster/state` API returns an internal representation of the cluster
state that does change from version to version. It's useful for debugging, but
it is not intended for regular use by clients.
This change adjusts the documentation of `GET /_cluster/state` to clarify that
this API yields an internal representation that should not be expected to
remain stable between versions.
Relates #40061, #40016
This change adds an option to the `FieldSortBuilder` that allows to transform the type
of a numeric field into another. Possible values for this option are `long` that transforms
the source field into an integer and `double` that transforms the source field into a floating point.
This new option is useful for cross-index search when the sort field is mapped differently on some
indices. For instance if a field is mapped as a floating point in one index and as an integer in another
it is possible to align the type for both indices using the `numeric_type` option:
```
{
"sort": {
"field": "my_field",
"numeric_type": "double" <1>
}
}
```
<1> Ensure that values for this field are transformed to a floating point if needed.
Currently if a field alias is updated, any percolator queries that contain the
alias will still refer to its old target. This PR documents the issue while we
look into addressing it.
Relates to #37212.
`document_type` is the type to use for parsing the document to percolate, which
is already optional and deprecated. However `percotale` queries also have the
ability to percolate existing documents, identified by an index, an id and a
type. This change makes the latter optional and deprecated.

This commit, mostly authored by @DaveCTurner,
adds documentation for elasticsearch-node tool #37696.

Lucene 8.0 includes a [change](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-8635)
that moves the terms index off-heap for all fields but ID fields. I'm
including this in the migration notes so that users who have queries that match
lots of terms won't be surprised in case of slowdown.
- new `rank_feature`/`script_score` queries
- new `index_phrases`/`index_prefixes` options
- disabling `_field_names` doesn't help anymore
- adaptive replica selection is on by default
We were missing release notes for 7.0.0-alpha1. I generated them by running
the release-notes script with a quick hack that filtered out pull requests
that had been closed on or after 2018-11-15.
Some breaking changes had been documented in the release notes rather than
the migration guide so I moved them.
