Description
Type of issue
Inaccurate
What documentation page is affected
https://www.elastic.co/docs/reference/elasticsearch/index-settings/total-shards-per-node
What happened?
This doc belongs to the Index Settings hierarchy, and it's not really clear if the settings mentioned there are really index settings or cluster level settings.
I'm pretty sure (but it would require verification) that:
-
index.routing.allocation.total_shards_per_node -> That's an index level setting, so it makes sense in the scope of the doc.
-
cluster.routing.allocation.total_shards_per_node -> That's a cluster level setting. As this part of the documentation is about index level settings, we should clearly indicate that that's a cluster level setting and maybe adding a link to the doc about cluster setttings API, so the user gets more details on how to set it in case of need.
