Hi ,I am adding the Elasticsearch server in remote system and configured below steps.here i am using elasticsearch-2.4.0 and liferay-ce-portal-7.0-ga5elasticsearch.yml file modified below lines:
cluster.name: LiferayElasticsearchCluster
network.host: xx.xx.xx.xx #ip address of Elasticsearch server

in liferay sideadded below file in /osgi/config/com.liferay.portal.search.elasticsearch.configuration.ElasticsearchConfiguration.config --- this file added in above path and in this file below properties added
transportAddresses="xx.xx.xxx.xx:9300" # here added the Elasticsearch server ip address
operationMode="REMOTE"

after adding above and restarted both servers . after restart then started the reindex all from control panel. but in remote server data folder i did not find the liferay-20116

Please let me know where it will store the data when we run the re-index all.
Regards

Hi srini vasulu,
Instead of configuring using com.liferay.portal.search.elasticsearch.configuration.ElasticsearchConfiguration.config file, go to System Settings => Foundation => Elasticsearch and check there you have:

The remote mode is enabled
The cluster name matches with yours

Before executing a full reindex, check that there are no records in database of old reindex operations in Lock_ and BackgroundTask tables: Lock_ table should be empty and all records in BackgroundTask should have status=2, 3 or 5
Execute a full reindex and check that no error is thrown to the log file.
If you have any error in the log file please copy it here.
