Since we are running on a small VPS, we might need to configure it for a low memory environment!

Up to: Tech WG, Search

Config

List any changed config values here!!!

/etc/elasticsearch/elasticsearch.yml:

network.host: localhost
discovery.type: single-node
xpack.security.enabled: true

/home/mastodon/.env.production

idk if we should put this part online but there is some config here too

Service

Use the default service, except we also make it restart when it dies:

/lib/systemd/system/elasticsearch.service

[Service]
# Other stuff....
ExecStart=/usr/share/elasticsearch/bin/systemd-entrypoint -p ${PID_DIR}/elasticsearch.pid --quiet
Restart=always
RestartSec=30 
# ...

Memory

the ES docs say to allocate half your available memory to the heap. At the moment (23-10-26) we are using 2.5G/8G memory at rest. Going to try allocating 2GB and see what happens

Notes:

  • Keep getting OOM, so changing 3GB to 2GB. Search performance seems fine, indexing jobs finish, etc. This will probably be fine for now unless we have some huge spike in users/searchers - jonny, 23-11-25


/etc/elasticsearch/jvm.options.d/heap.options

-Xms2g
-Xmx2g
