929550 - need to modify cluster.name for ES public bugs cluster

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

Hello,

Unfortunately, when I set up the ES instance for public bugs (bug 872363) I specified an incorrect name for the cluster - in particular, I used the name of an existing cluster elsewhere (delicious copy pasta).  Since these two clusters cannot speak to one another, this is not a critical bug but it should be fixed, lest we invite potential disaster (in the form of inadvertent data merging) down the road.

Luckily, this is a quick fix : just update the config file, stop the cluster, rename the data dir on the filesystem, and then restart the cluster.  This will involve a couple of minutes of downtime (max).  As I'm in UTC+2 we will need to schedule this for a time when there's overlap - so a "morning" in North America.

A-Team : Let me know what works for you. :)

Anytime is good.  We do not have access to it yet, so we can't even use it.

The manipulation has been completed.

As for getting you access, I'll open a bug for that. :/
