Allow the use of "doc" as the update source when a script is not
specified. New fields are added, existing fields are overwritten, and
maps are merged recursively.
though harmless, since we don't have any "default" component, and effectively has not effect on the settings used, it still puts settings that we don't really need
This effectively happens because we don't flush before deleting a mapping, which causes it to still reply the changes happening for it on the transaction log, meaning the mapping are still around on the index level.
When a node restarts, it might be canceling one recovery of a shard id only to get another one in the next cycle. We should detect this case and handle it properly.
This is a fix to the annoying message seen by users: suspect illegal state: trying to move shard from primary mode to replica mode.
Two main changes:
Improve cluster resiliency to disconnected sub clusters. If a node pings a master and that node is no longer registered with the master, improve the rejoin process of that node to the cluster. Also, if a master receives a message from another master, pick one to force to rejoin the cluster (based on cluster state versioning).
On quick rolling restart, without waiting for shard allocation, the shard allocation logic can mess up its counts, causing for strange logic in allocating shards, or validation failures on routing table allocation.
Allow to configure store throttling (only applied on file system based storage), which allows to control the maximum bytes per sec written to the file system. It can be configured to only apply while merging, or on all output operations. The setting can eb set on the node level (in which case the throttling is done across all shards allocated on the node), or index level, in which case it only applied to that index.
The node level settings are indices.store.throttle.type to set the type, with values of none, merge and all (defaults to none). And, also, indices.store.throttle.max_bytes_per_sec (defaults to 0), which can be set to something like 1mb.
The index level settings is index.store.throttle.type for the type, with values of node, none, merge, and all. Defaults to node which will use the "shared" throttling on the node level. And, index.store.throttle.max_bytes_per_sec (defaults to 0).
