CentOS7安装ElasticSearch7的步骤

从https://www.elastic.co/cn/网站下载elasticsearch的安装包，笔者下载的安装包为elasticsearch-7.1.0的版本。elasticsearch在7版本之后已经自带JDK，但是这里建议使用自己系统安装的JDK。安装JDK可以参考笔者的博文:CentOS7安装JDK8
笔者打算将elasticsearch安装在/usr/local目录下，因而将安装包使用xftp工具上传到该目录下。

使用tar -zxvf elasticsearch-7.1.0-linux-x86_64.tar.gz命令解压elasticsearch-7.1.0的安装包，解压完成后如图所示，会多出一个elasticsearch-7.1.0的文件夹：

可以使用 rm -rf elasticsearch-7.1.0-linux-x86_64.tar.gz命令将安装包删除。然后我们进入到elasticsearch的文件夹内，看看elasticsearch的目录结构。

bin          //主要存放的是elasticsearch相关的脚本文件
config       // 存放的是elasticsearch的配置文件
jdk         //elasticsearch自带的jdk
logs        //elasticsearch存放日志
modules     //elasticsearch的功能模块
plugins     //elasticsearch的插件，我们安装的插件存放在此目录

在这里我们需要对elasticsearch进行相关的配置，编辑config目录下的elasticsearch.yml文件，重点关注以下7个配置项：

# ======================== Elasticsearch Configuration =========================
#
# NOTE: Elasticsearch comes with reasonable defaults for most settings.
#       Before you set out to tweak and tune the configuration, make sure you
#       understand what are you trying to accomplish and the consequences.
#
# The primary way of configuring a node is via this file. This template lists
