JR62824: ELASTICSEARCH IN THE PFS-VALIDATE TOOL FAILS IF THE PROCESS FEDERATION SERVER MACHINE HAS MULTIPLE NETWORK INTERFACES

pfs.20002.delta.repository

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The pfs-validate tool compares the nodes that are declared in
  the discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts IBM Process Federation
  Server configuration property with what the ElasticSearch API
  GET /_nodes/stats returns. If the Process Federation Server
  machine has more than one network interface, the configuration
  and the output of the GET request might differ, which causes the
   ElasticSearch validation in the pfs-validate tool to fail.
  
  Although this failure doesn't introduce functional issues with
  Process Federation Server, the error message is something like
  the following examples:
  
  The following Elasticsearch node configured in the
  discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts attribute has not joined the
  cluster: Host name:terence2 Port:9300
  *** If the node is running, check the system logs for connection
  issues.
  *** Check the SSL setting, the cluster name, and the passphrase
  definitions for this Elasticsearch node.
  
  The following Elasticsearch node configured in the
  discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts attribute has not joined the
  cluster: Host name:terence3 Port:9301
  *** If the node is running, check the system logs for connection
  issues.
  *** Check the SSL setting, the cluster name, and the passphrase
  definitions for this Elasticsearch node.
  
  The following Elasticsearch node configured in the
  discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts attribute has not joined the
  cluster: Host name:terence3 Port:9302
  *** If the node is running, check the system logs for connection
  issues.
  *** Check the SSL setting, the cluster name, and the passphrase
  definitions for this Elasticsearch node.
