You can choose to show only one (or more fields) from the documents by using the "fields" parameter, but that won't help here because you already have just one field in the docs. > > #2 The response says (as I interpret it), there are 100 results (which is > what I pushed), but I only see a small subset.

You can change that by adjusting the size parameter, like: curl 'localhost:9200/_search?pretty&size=100' In theory, you can make "size" as big as you want. In practice, ES isn't great at returning huge results (think millions, it should have problems with 100 or 1000), because it has to load everything in memory and sort by score in order to return that result. That's why, for deep paging, the scroll method I mentioned is better. _______________________________________________ rsyslog mailing list http://lists.adiscon.net/mailman/listinfo/rsyslog http://www.rsyslog.com/professional-services/ What's up with rsyslog?
