Tarball

The tarball installation works on Linux systems and provides a self-contained directory with everything you need to run Open Distro for Elasticsearch, including an integrated Java Development Kit (JDK). The tarball is a good option for testing, but we recommend Docker or a package manager for production deployments.

The tarball supports CentOS 7, Amazon Linux 2, Ubuntu 18.04, and most other Linux distributions. If you have your own Java installation and you set JAVA_HOME in the terminal, macOS works as well.

  1. Download the tarball:

    curl https://d3g5vo6xdbdb9a.cloudfront.net/tarball/opendistro-elasticsearch/opendistroforelasticsearch-1.6.0.tar.gz -o opendistroforelasticsearch-1.6.0.tar.gz

  2. Download the checksum:

    curl https://d3g5vo6xdbdb9a.cloudfront.net/tarball/opendistro-elasticsearch/opendistroforelasticsearch-1.6.0.tar.gz.sha512 -o opendistroforelasticsearch-1.6.0.tar.gz.sha512

  3. Verify the tarball against the checksum:

    shasum -a 512 -c opendistroforelasticsearch-1.6.0.tar.gz.sha512

    On CentOS, you might not have shasum. Install this package:

    sudo yum install perl-Digest-SHA

    Due to a known issue with the checksum, this step might fail. You can still proceed with the installation.

  4. Extract the TAR file to a directory and change to that directory:

    tar -zxf opendistroforelasticsearch-1.6.0.tar.gz
cd opendistroforelasticsearch-1.6.0

  5. Run Open Distro for Elasticsearch:

    ./opendistro-tar-install.sh

  6. Open a second terminal session, and send requests to the server to verify that Open Distro for Elasticsearch is up and running:

    curl -XGET https://localhost:9200 -u admin:admin --insecure
curl -XGET https://localhost:9200/_cat/plugins?v -u admin:admin --insecure

Configuration

You can modify config/elasticsearch.yml or specify environment variables as arguments using -E:

./opendistro-tar-install.sh -Ecluster.name=odfe-cluster -Enode.name=odfe-node1 -Ehttp.host=0.0.0.0 -Ediscovery.type=single-node
