 It still remains a bit of black magic to me. Sometimes it works, sometimes

Ivan,

I have read over that documentation several times and I don't understand 
how it would help me. By which I mean I honestly don't understand how it 
would help me - not that I am unwilling to try it. Those settings read like 
they control when recovery would begin, but my problem isn't that recovery 
is starting when I don't want it to, it's that when I start it (by setting 
shard allocation about to all) shards that I'd think would just stick 
with the node they were previously on, get assigned to other nodes, then 
ultimately get rebalanced back to the original node.

At this point I am finding that for quick restarts, just doing them with no 
additional prep work allows me to recover in ~30m, vs ~24h. So for now I'm 
just going to do that. Whatever I am doing wrong here just isn't at all 
clear to me.

Thanks for your advice. If I have misunderstood the settings you pointed me 
at and you think you can help me understand, I'd be grateful for more 
information.

Andy



 Cheers,

 Ivan

Re: cluster.routing.allocation.enable behavior (sticky shard allocation not working as expected)

2014-07-30 Thread Ivan Brusic
The idea is that the cluster should be delayed when a cluster rebalance
occurs, but even with these settings, I often find that shards are moved
immediately.

Are you using the default stores throttling settings? I found them to be
quite low.

Cheers,

Ivan

I've seen this as well Ivan, and have also had a few people on IRC comment
on the same thing - shards that are local are not simply being initialised,
but being reallocated elsewhere.

Have you found a solution (or explaination) to your issue ?
We are using elasticsearch 1.1.1, what about you ?

Hi,

I haven't learned anything new. To be clear about my problem, I am
aware that I must re-enable routing after having disabled it. My issue
is that I expect all the UNASSIGNED shards to go back to the same
node, but some do not, only to get rebalanced back there later. I am
running elasticsearch 1.2.1.

Hello,

I have exactly the same issue.
My objective is to make a rolling restart script which wait for green
cluster state before restarting a node.
I use:
 curl -XPUT -s $host:$port/_cluster/settings -d 
 '{transient:{cluster.routing.allocation.enable: new_primaries}}'

to allow the cluster to work (and be able to create indices) during
restart.

But same issue: node is back up but nothing happen until I enable all
allocation again

I have gone through elasticsearch documentation related to recovery,
gateway, cluster settings without finding any parameters to activate or
configure this initial recovery of local indices.
