Hardware problems in Azure? Hmm. I suppose so :) In this case I restarted just ES (i.e., shutdown ES using http://localhost:9200/_cluster/nodes/_local/_shutdown and then ran elasticsearch.bat again) and thus didn't reboot the VM or anything so dramatic. All of the ES node files remained in place and the node reconnected with the cluster with no issue. My rdp session remained. I suspect if this were a hardware issue a) we would have seen this long ago and b) it would have persisted after I restarted ES.
Related, we actually have two clusters of the same size and same data that have exhibited the same behavior. The cluster in which I restarted three ES nodes remains responsive. The other cluster in which I have not (yet) restarted nodes remains with the highly variable response time (200-40000ms with 34415ms being a recent one). Thanks for replying. Craig.
