A tag is required to reuse Elasticsearch breaking changes in the Stack Guide. To display properly, the breaking changes must use external links rather than xrefs. This PR correctly places those tags for reuse. It also replaces several xrefs with external links for reuse.

*Details* +
|
|
If a node exceeds the flood-stage disk watermark then we add a block to all of
|
|
its indices to prevent further writes as a last-ditch attempt to prevent the
|
|
node completely exhausting its disk space. By default, from 7.4 onwards the
|
|
block is automatically removed when a node drops below the high watermark
|
|
again, but this behaviour could be disabled by setting the system property
|
|
`es.disk.auto_release_flood_stage_block` to `false`. This behaviour is no
|
|
longer optional, and this system property must now not be set.
|
|
|
|
*Impact* +
|
|
Discontinue use of the `es.disk.auto_release_flood_stage_block` system property.
|
|
Specifying this property in `elasticsearch.yml` will result in an error on
|
|
startup.

.Accounting for the disk usage of relocating shards is no longer optional.
|
|
[%collapsible]
|
|
====
|
|
*Details* +
|
|
By default {es} will account for the sizes of relocating shards when making
|
|
allocation decisions based on the disk usage of the nodes in the cluster. In
|
|
earlier versions the `cluster.routing.allocation.disk.include_relocations`
|
|
setting allowed this accounting to be disabled, which would result in poor
|
|
allocation decisions that might overshoot watermarks and require significant
|
|
extra work to correct. This behaviour is no longer optional, and this setting
|
|
has been removed.
|
|
|
|
*Impact* +
|
|
Discontinue use of the `cluster.routing.allocation.disk.include_relocations`
|
|
setting. Specifying this setting in `elasticsearch.yml` will result in an error
|
|
on startup.
