Setting Up a Cluster During OpenSearch Installation

When you perform a fresh install of OpenSearch using the PeopleSoft Deployment Packages (DPK), the installation process enables you to set up an OpenSearch cluster with a single node or with multiple nodes.

For the step-by-step description of the installation process for your operating system, see PeopleSoft Deployment Packages Installation for Search Components for the current release.

During the installation process, you are prompted to specify various configuration parameters. If you are manually installing OpenSearch, you are required to edit the opensearch.yml file where you can specify values for the parameters pertaining to a cluster. The configuration parameters that are specific to a cluster are described here:

• A name for the cluster.

• List of host names where OpenSearch will be installed or is installed.
