Cross-Cluster Replication
Quick steps for testing cross-cluster replication
You can run a local cluster and simulate a remote cluster within a single Kibana directory.
- Start your "local" cluster by running
yarn es snapshot --license=trial
andyarn start
to start Kibana. - Start your "remote" cluster by running
yarn es snapshot --license=trial -E cluster.name=europe -E transport.port=9400
in a separate terminal tab. - Index a document into your remote cluster by running
curl -X PUT http://elastic:changeme@localhost:9201/my-leader-index --data '{"settings":{"number_of_shards":1,"soft_deletes.enabled":true}}' --header "Content-Type: application/json"
. Note that these settings are required for testing auto-follow pattern conflicts errors (see below).
Now you can create follower indices and auto-follow patterns to replicate the my-leader-index
index on the remote cluster that's available at 127.0.0.1:9400
.
Auto-follow pattern conflict errors
You can view conflict errors by creating two auto-follow patterns with overlapping patterns (e.g. my*
and my-*
) that will both capture the my-leader-index
index on your remote cluster. Run the curl command to create my-leader-index2
on your remote cluster, since auto-follow patterns don't replicate existing indices.
Now, when you open the details flyout of one of the auto-follow patterns you will see a list of recent errors.
