Multiple DMA with external Elastic cluster

Hello,

I'm trying to set up a several DMAs with external Elastic cluster. I set a necessary settings in DBConfiguration.xml

<DatabaseConfiguration>
<SearchConfiguration>
<ElasticConnections>
<ElasticCluster priorityOrder="0">
<Hosts>1.1.1.1,1.1.1.2,1.1.1.3</Hosts>
<Username />
<Password></Password>
<Prefix>dma_43201</Prefix>
<FileOffloadIdentifier>DM_Cluster</FileOffloadIdentifier>
</ElasticCluster>
</ElasticConnections>
</SearchConfiguration>
</DatabaseConfiguration>

After starting DMA I got a lot of errors like this :

2021/07/28 05:30:33.734|SLDBConnection|SLDataGateway.Repositories|INF|0|1|2021-07-28T05:30:33.724|DEBUG|DataGateway.Storage.Elastic.LogEntry (elastic_log_entry)|CreateIndexTemplateIfNotExists - Attempt 1/10 failed with exception: Elasticsearch.Net.ElasticsearchClientException: The remote server returned an error: (400) Bad Request..

I found that  "mapper_parsing_exception" might appear during to client/server incompatibility. Current version (7.13.4) of Elasticsearch doesn't support mapping types as described here https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/removal-of-types.html

So the questions is : which version of Elasticsearch compatible with DM (I tried 10.1.8)? Have you tested it with 7.13?

Hi Anatoly,

Please see a similar question:
Can my DataMiner System use an existing Elastic cluster?

The version should match 6.x.x (preferably 6.8.x, so DataMiner can leverage the free security features).

Thanks, Miguel. I will try to move forward with 6.8 release.
Have you intention to update DM for Elastic 7.x in future versions?

Srikanth Mandava [SLC] [DevOps Member] commented 30th July 2021

Anatoly,

This is certainly under exploration, however this comes with many technical challenges. Note that there is huge list of breaking items by Elasticsearch https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/7.x/breaking-changes-7.0.html , so it will be reflected under the roadmap once we are at that stage.
