Heya,

I know it’s been quite a while since the question was originally posted, but I would like to post an answer in case someone runs into it now in 2023.

Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to do that:

1. Access the Elasticsearch container.

  1. docker exec -it container_name /bin/bash

Replace container_name with the actual name or ID of your Elasticsearch container.

2. Edit the Elasticsearch configuration.

Once you’re inside the container, navigate to the Elasticsearch configuration directory and edit the elasticsearch.yml file. For example, you can use a text editor like vi or nano:

  1. vim /path/to/elasticsearch/config/elasticsearch.yml

Make the necessary changes and save the file.

3. Restart the Elasticsearch service.

  1. service elasticsearch restart

This will restart Elasticsearch with the new configuration settings.

Your changes should now be reflected in the running Elasticsearch instance.

Keep in mind:

  • Always make sure to back up your configuration files before making changes.
  • Be cautious when editing Elasticsearch configurations, as improper changes can lead to issues.
  • If you’re using TPOT (Telegraf, Prometheus, OpenTelemetry, Tracee) for managing your Elasticsearch container, make sure you have configured TPOT to read the updated elasticsearch.yml file correctly. TPOT might have its own configuration settings that need to be aligned with your Elasticsearch changes.

Hope that this helps!
