Shards stuck in initializing status for long time

[Dong Aihua]

Hi, guys:

  I created a new cluster from scratch.

  After the cluster is up, I tried to create some empty indices for example index-2013-02-25, index-2013-02-26, index-2013-02-27, index-2013-03-01, etc

  But some shards stuck in initializing status for long time.

{

  "cluster_name" : "es-test",

  "status" : "yellow",

  "timed_out" : false,

  "number_of_nodes" : 20,

  "number_of_data_nodes" : 15,

  "active_primary_shards" : 105,

  "active_shards" : 201,

  "relocating_shards" : 0,

  "initializing_shards" : 9,

  "unassigned_shards" : 0

}

  There is no error log in the logs.

  Moreover when I created index-2013-03-02, the cluster became to red.

{

  "cluster_name" : "es-test",

  "status" : "red",

  "timed_out" : false,

  "number_of_nodes" : 20,

  "number_of_data_nodes" : 15,

  "active_primary_shards" : 119,

  "active_shards" : 228,

  "relocating_shards" : 0,

  "initializing_shards" : 11,

  "unassigned_shards" : 1

}

 Does anyone know why this happen?

 Thank you very much!

-Regards-

By the way, I set the log level to trace, and checked the logs, no error logs are shown. but from the logs, I can know some shards are initializing and unassigned.

Did you set anything for your indices or did you use defaults?

Did you modify anyhow elasticsearch.yml?

Is it on a single box?

I used 20 machines. And I just tried 0.20.4 and 0.20.5, the same problem.

But for 0.19.11, the problem disappeared. All the empty indices can be created successfully instantly even for some strange index names.

So I guess maybe ES has some bugs for 0.20.4 and 0.20.5.
