This commit updates the Zen Discovery documentation to explain which
nodes partcipate in master election (by default) as well as the
configuration parameters for controlling this.
Closes#12727
The `multi_match` query groups terms that have the same analyzer together and
then applies the boost of the first query in each group. This is not necessary
given that boosts for each term are already applied another way.
Today this is "unofficial" as conf/scripts, but some people
want to share scripts across different nodes and so on. Because
they cannot configure it, they are forced to use dirty hacks
like symbolic links, which isnt going to work: we aren't going
to recursively scan conf/ and add permissions to all link targets
underneath it, thats crazy.
I really hate adding yet another configuration knob here, but
users resorting to using symlinks are going to be frustrated,
and do things in a more insecure way.
In order to ensure, we have the same experience across operating systems
and shells, this commit uses the java CLI parser instead of the shell
getopt parsing to parse arguments.
This also allows for support for paths, which contain spaces.
Also commons-cli depdency was upgraded to 1.3.1 and tests have been added.
Changes
* new exit code, OK_AND_EXIT, allowing to tell the caller to exit, as everything
went as expected (e.g. when running a version output)
BWC breaking:
* execute() returns an ExitStatus instead of an integer, otherwise there is no
possibility to signal by a command, if the JVM should be exited after a run.
This affects plugins, that have command line tools
* -v used to be version, but is a verbose flag by default in the current CLI infra,
must be -V or --version now
* -X has been removed - the current implementation was useless anyway, as
it prefixed those properties with "es.". You should use
ES_JAVA_OPTS/JAVA_OPTS for JVM configuration
Date math index name resolution enables you to search a range of time-series indices, rather than searching all of your time-series indices and filtering the the results or maintaining aliases. Limiting the number of indices that are searched reduces the load on the cluster and improves execution performance. For example, if you are searching for errors in your daily logs, you can use a date math name template to restrict the search to the past two days.
The added `ExpressionResolver` implementation that is responsible for resolving date math expressions in index names. This resolver is evaluated before wildcard expressions are evaluated.
The supported format: `<static_name{date_math_expr{date_format|timezone_id}}>` and the date math expressions must be enclosed within angle brackets. The `date_format` is optional and defaults to `YYYY.MM.dd`. The `timezone_id` id is optional too and defaults to `utc`.
The `{` character can be escaped by places `\\` before it.
Closes#12059
HDRHistogram has been added as an option in the percentiles and percentile_ranks aggregation. It has one option `number_significant_digits` which controls the accuracy and memory size for the algorithm
Closes#8324
The TransportSingleCustomOperationAction `prefer_local` option has been removed as it isn't worth the effort.
The TransportSingleShardAction will execute the operation on the receiving node if a concrete list doesn't provide a list of candite shards routings to perform the operation on.
The release and smoke test python scripts used to install
plugins in the old fashion.
Also the BATS testing suite installed/removed plugins in that
way. Here the marvel tests have been removed, as marvel currently
does not work with the master branch.
In addition documentation has been updated as well, where it was
still missing.
In order to unify the handling and reuse the CLITool infrastructure
the plugin manager should make use of this as well.
This obsolets the -i and --install options but requires the user
to use `install` as the first argument of the CLI.
This is basically just a port of the existing functionality, which
is also the reason why this is not a refactoring of the plugin manager,
which will come in a separate commit.
The `_index` field is now a completely virtual field thanks
to #12027. It is no longer necessary to index the actual value
of the index name.

Store information reports on which nodes shard copies exist, the shard
copy version, indicating how recent they are, and any exceptions
encountered while opening the shard index or from earlier engine failure.
closes#10952
Just like specifying `?preference=_primary`, this adds the ability to
specify `?preference=_replica` or `?preference=_replica_first` on
requests that support it.
Resolves#12222
During master election each node pings in order to discover other nodes and validate the liveness of existing nodes. Based on this information the node either discovers an existing master or, if enough nodes are found (based on `discovery.zen.minimum_master_nodes>>) a new master will be elected.
Currently, the node that is elected as master will currently update it the cluster state to indicate the result of the election. Other nodes will submit a join request to the newly elected master node. Instead of immediately processing the election result, the elected master
node should wait for the incoming joins from other nodes, thus validating the elections result is properly applied. As soon as enough nodes have sent their joins request (based on the `minimum_master_nodes` settings) the cluster state is modified.
Note that if `minimum_master_nodes` is not set, this change has no effect.
Closes#12161
Require urls for URL repository to be listed in repositories.url.allowed_urls setting. This change ensures that only authorized URLs can be accessed by elasticsearch
Lucene deprecated this in 4.0 and we only try best effort to support it.
Folks should only use edit distance rather than some length based
similarity. Yet the formular is simple enough such that users can
still do it in the client if they really need to.
Closes#10638
Change the default delayed allocation timeout from 0 (no delayed allocation) to 1m. The value came from a test of having a node with 50 shards being indexed into (so beefy translog requiring flush on shutdown), then shutting it down and starting it back up and waiting for it to join the cluster. This took, on a slow machine, about 30s.
The value is conservatively low and does not try to address a virtual machine / OS restart for now, in order to not have the affect of node going away and users being concerned that shards are not being allocated to the rest of the cluster as a result of that. The setting can always be changed in order to increase the delayed allocation if needed.
closes#12166
This PR is a simple doc patch to explicitly mention with an example of
how to create an alias using a glob pattern. This comes up from
time-to-time with our customers and in the community and although
mentioned in the documentation already, is not obvious.
Also mention that the alias will not auto-update as indices matching the
glob change.
Closes#12175Closes#12176
ignore_above is used to guard against the lucene limitation
that a term cannot exceed 32766 bytes.
However, the implementation just used the character count, which
doesn't take into account the fact that some characters have
multi-byte utf-8 encodings.
This commit updates the docs to make this relationship clear.
Closes#11563
Add support for retrieving fields in bulk updates
This commit adds support to retrieve fields when using the bulk update API. This functionality was previously available for the update API
but not for the bulk update API.

Fixed documentation since the default rewrite method for fuzzy queries is to
select top terms, fixed usage of the fuzzy rewrite method, and removed unused
`rewrite` parameter.
Close#6932
This rewrite method is interesting because it computes scores as if all terms
had the same frequencies, which avoids disappointments with ranking when a fuzzy
query ranks typos first given that they are less frequent than the correct term.
