Hi Jack, Although I'm a bit new to this, too... 1. You should take a look at your ES log files. Depending on how you installed and are running ES, the log files could be in different places. If I were to guess though, you should look in the following directory /var/log/elasticsearch/ 2. One of the first things I did was to install and run elasticsearch-head to get near-runtime visibility the status and distribution of the nodes, indexes, shards, etc. HTH, Tony
