I am getting my hands in AWS hosted Elastic search. Is it possible for me to connect to the ES via the instance its linked? and is it possible to reboot my elastic search cluster?
The AWS Cli don't have anything related to reboot and all i can try is http curl to my ES.
You are able to reboot a cluster using the ElastiCache console, the AWS CLI, or the ElastiCache API. Whether you use the ElastiCache console, the AWS CLI or the ElastiCache API, you can only initiate rebooting a single cluster. To reboot multiple clusters you must iterate on the process or operation.
The correct way to restart a node is to shut it down, using either the shutdown API or sending a TERM signal to the process (eg with kill $PID ). Once shut down, you can start a new node using whatever you use to run elasticsearch, eg the service wrapper, or just starting it from the command line.
To reboot an AWS Elasticsearch cluster, the only way is to log a support ticket and they will schedule a reboot for you. You can't do it yourselves.
I had a "1 node ES" in a testing environment that was not connectable. I was able to get the "1 node cluster" to "reboot" by increasing the number of nodes from 1 to 2. Then reducing the number of nodes from 2 to 1, and hoping it removed the one I wanted.
