Cluster not reachable
If securityadmin.sh
can't reach the cluster, it outputs:
OpenSearch Security Admin v6
Will connect to localhost:9300
ERR: Seems there is no opensearch running on localhost:9300 - Will exit
Check hostname
By default, securityadmin.sh
uses localhost
. If your cluster runs on any other host, specify the hostname using the -h
option.
Check the port
Check that you are running securityadmin.sh
against the transport port, not the HTTP port.
By default, securityadmin.sh
uses 9300
. If your cluster runs on a different port, use the -p
option to specify the port number.
None of the configured nodes are available
If securityadmin.sh
can reach the cluster, but can't update the configuration, it outputs this error:
Contacting opensearch cluster 'opensearch' and wait for YELLOW clusterstate ...
Cannot retrieve cluster state due to: None of the configured nodes are available: [{#transport#-1}{mr2NlX3XQ3WvtVG0Dv5eHw}{localhost}{127.0.0.1:9300}]. This is not an error, will keep on trying ...

Try running
securityadmin.sh
with-icl
and-nhnv
.If this works, check your cluster name as well as the hostnames in your SSL certificates. If this does not work, try running
securityadmin.sh
with--diagnose
and see diagnose trace log file. -
Add
--accept-red-cluster
to allowsecurityadmin.sh
to operate on a red cluster.
Check cluster name
By default, securityadmin.sh
uses opensearch
as the cluster name.
If your cluster has a different name, you can either ignore the name completely using the -icl
option or specify the name using the -cn
option.
Check hostname verification
By default, securityadmin.sh
verifies that the hostname in your node's certificate matches the node's actual hostname.
If this is not the case (e.g. if you're using the demo certificates), you can disable hostname verification by adding the -nhnv
option.
Check cluster state
By default, securityadmin.sh
only executes if the cluster state is at least yellow.
If your cluster state is red, you can still execute securityadmin.sh
, but you need to add the -arc
option.
Check the security index name
By default, the security plugin uses .opendistro_security
as the name of the configuration index. If you configured a different index name in opensearch.yml
, specify it using the -i
option.
"ERR: DN is not an admin user"
If the TLS certificate used to start securityadmin.sh
isn't an admin certificate, the script outputs:
Connected as CN=node-0.example.com,OU=SSL,O=Test,L=Test,C=DE
ERR: CN=node-0.example.com,OU=SSL,O=Test,L=Test,C=DE is not an admin user
You must use an admin certificate when executing the script. To learn more, see Configuring admin certificates.
Use the diagnose option
For more information on why securityadmin.sh
is not executing, add the --diagnose
option:
./securityadmin.sh -diagnose -cd ../../../config/opensearch-security/ -cacert ... -cert ... -key ... -keypass ...
The script prints the location of the generated diagnostic file.
