=== Install Elasticsearch from archive on Linux or MacOS
|
|
|
|
Elasticsearch is as a `.tar.gz` archive for Linux and MacOS.
|
|
|
|
include::license.asciidoc[]
|
|
|
|
The latest stable version of Elasticsearch can be found on the
|
|
link:/downloads/elasticsearch[Download Elasticsearch] page.
|
|
Other versions can be found on the
|
|
link:/downloads/past-releases[Past Releases page].
|
|
|
|
NOTE: Elasticsearch includes a bundled version of http://openjdk.java.net[OpenJDK]
|
|
from the JDK maintainers (GPLv2+CE). To use your own version of Java,
|
|
see the <<jvm-version, JVM version requirements>>

The Linux archive for Elasticsearch v{version} can be downloaded and installed as follows:
|
|
|
|
["source","sh",subs="attributes"]
|
|
--------------------------------------------
|
|
wget https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-{version}-linux-x86_64.tar.gz

tar -xzf elasticsearch-{version}-linux-x86_64.tar.gz
|
|
cd elasticsearch-{version}/ <2>
|
|
--------------------------------------------
|
|
<1> Compares the SHA of the downloaded `.tar.gz` archive and the published checksum, which should output
|

{xpack} will try to automatically create a number of indices within {es}.

[[targz-configuring]]
|
|
==== Configuring Elasticsearch on the command line
|
|
|
|
Elasticsearch loads its configuration from the `$ES_HOME/config/elasticsearch.yml`
|
|
file by default. The format of this config file is explained in
|
|
<<settings>>.
|
|
|
|
Any settings that can be specified in the config file can also be specified on
|
|
the command line, using the `-E` syntax as follows:
|
|
|
|
[source,sh]
|
|
--------------------------------------------
|
|
./bin/elasticsearch -d -Ecluster.name=my_cluster -Enode.name=node_1
|
|
--------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
TIP: Typically, any cluster-wide settings (like `cluster.name`) should be
|
|
added to the `elasticsearch.yml` config file, while any node-specific settings
|
|
such as `node.name` could be specified on the command line.
|
|
|
|
[[targz-layout]]
|
|
==== Directory layout of archives
|
|
|
|
The archive distributions are entirely self-contained. All files and
|
|
directories are, by default, contained within `$ES_HOME` -- the directory
|
|
created when unpacking the archive.
|
|
|
|
This is very convenient because you don't have to create any directories to
|
|
start using Elasticsearch, and uninstalling Elasticsearch is as easy as
|
|
removing the `$ES_HOME` directory. However, it is advisable to change the
|
|
default locations of the config directory, the data directory, and the logs
|
|
directory so that you do not delete important data later on.
