此elasticsearch-.yml配置文件，是在$ES_HOME/config/下

elasticsearch-.yml（中文配置详解）

# ======================== Elasticsearch Configuration =========================

# NOTE: Elasticsearch comes with reasonable defaults for most settings.
# Before you set out to tweak and tune the configuration, make sure you
# understand what are you trying to accomplish and the consequences.

# The primary way of configuring a node is via this file. This template lists
# the most important settings you may want to configure for a production cluster.

# Please see the documentation for further information on configuration options:
# http://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/setup-configuration.html

# ---------------------------------- Cluster -----------------------------------

# Use a descriptive name for your cluster:
# 集群名称，默认是elasticsearch
# cluster.name: my-application

# ------------------------------------ Node ------------------------------------

# Use a descriptive name for the node:
# 节点名称，默认从elasticsearch-2.4.3/lib/elasticsearch-2.4.3.jar!config/names.txt中随机选择一个名称
# node.name: node-1

# Add custom attributes to the node:

# node.rack: r1

# ----------------------------------- Paths ------------------------------------

# Path to directory where to store the data (separate multiple locations by comma):
# 可以指定es的数据存储目录，默认存储在es_home/data目录下
# path.data: /path/to/data

# Path to log files:
# 可以指定es的日志存储目录，默认存储在es_home/logs目录下
# path.logs: /path/to/logs

# ----------------------------------- Memory -----------------------------------

# Lock the memory on startup:

锁定物理内存地址，防止elasticsearch内存被交换出去,也就是避免es使用swap交换分区

# bootstrap.memory_lock: true

# 确保ES_HEAP_SIZE参数设置为系统可用内存的一半左右
# Make sure that the `ES_HEAP_SIZE` environment variable is set to about half the memory
# available on the system and that the owner of the process is allowed to use this limit.

# 当系统进行内存交换的时候，es的性能很差
# Elasticsearch performs poorly when the system is swapping the memory.

# ---------------------------------- Network -----------------------------------

# 为es设置ip绑定，默认是127.0.0.1，也就是默认只能通过127.0.0.1 或者localhost才能访问
# es1.x版本默认绑定的是0.0.0.0 所以不需要配置，但是es2.x版本默认绑定的是127.0.0.1，需要配置
# Set the bind address to a specific IP (IPv4 or IPv6):

# network.host: 192.168.0.1

# 为es设置自定义端口，默认是9200
# 注意：在同一个服务器中启动多个es节点的话，默认监听的端口号会自动加1：例如：9200，9201，9202…
# Set a custom port for HTTP:

# http.port: 9200

# For more information, see the documentation at:
# http://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/modules-network.html

# --------------------------------- Discovery ----------------------------------

# 当启动新节点时，通过这个ip列表进行节点发现，组建集群
# 默认节点列表：
# 127.0.0.1，表示ipv4的回环地址。
# [::1]，表示ipv6的回环地址

# 在es1.x中默认使用的是组播(multicast)协议，默认会自动发现同一网段的es节点组建集群，
# 在es2.x中默认使用的是单播(unicast)协议，想要组建集群的话就需要在这指定要发现的节点信息了。
# 注意：如果是发现其他服务器中的es服务，可以不指定端口[默认9300]，如果是发现同一个服务器中的es服务，就需要指定端口了。
# Pass an initial list of hosts to perform discovery when new node is started:

# The default list of hosts is [“127.0.0.1”, “[::1]”]

# discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts: [“host1”, “host2”]

# 通过配置这个参数来防止集群脑裂现象 (集群总节点数量/2)+1
# Prevent the “split brain” by configuring the majority of nodes (total number of nodes / 2 + 1):

# discovery.zen.minimum_master_nodes: 3

# For more information, see the documentation at:
# http://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/modules-discovery.html

# ---------------------------------- Gateway -----------------------------------

# Block initial recovery after a full cluster restart until N nodes are started:
# 一个集群中的N个节点启动后,才允许进行数据恢复处理，默认是1
# gateway.recover_after_nodes: 3

# For more information, see the documentation at:
# http://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/modules-gateway.html

# ---------------------------------- Various -----------------------------------
# 在一台服务器上禁止启动多个es服务
# Disable starting multiple nodes on a single system:

# node.max_local_storage_nodes: 1

# 设置是否可以通过正则或者_all删除或者关闭索引库，默认true表示必须需要显式指定索引库名称
# 生产环境建议设置为true，删除索引库的时候必须显式指定，否则可能会误删索引库中的索引库。
# Require explicit names when deleting indices:

# action.destructive_requires_name: true

集群名称，默认是elasticsearch

输入，http://192.168.80.200:9200/

默认存储在es_home/data目录下
