Tell us about your request. Provide a summary of the request. Ref: https://github.com/opensearch-project/OpenSearch/issues/14744 Page: https://opensearch.org/docs/latest/install-and-configure/configuring-opensearch/cluster-settings/ Setting is not dynamic but needs to get set in configuration yaml.

What in my opinion needs to be cleared is what happens if some systems have this config in their configuration yaml and others do not. Can this be different per server? How behaves the cluster?

Hi @HenryTheSir.

Is there a setting on the page that you're referring to specifically?

Hi @Naarcha-AWS ,

I am refering to cluster.allocator.existing_shards_allocator.batch_enabled setting, which is currently listed under dynamic setting, but is not a dynamic setting. One needs to set this in config yaml and not via _settings API.

best regards David
