cat shards APIedit
The shards
command is the detailed view of what nodes contain which
shards. It will tell you if it’s a primary or replica, the number of
docs, the bytes it takes on disk, and the node where it’s located.

Examplesedit
Example with a single indexedit
GET _cat/shards
The API returns the following response:
twitter 0 p STARTED 3014 31.1mb 192.168.56.10 H5dfFeA
Example with a index wildcard patternedit
If your cluster has many shards, you can use a wildcard pattern in the {index}
path parameter to limit the API request.
The following request returns information for any indices beginning with
twitt
.
GET _cat/shards/twitt*
The API returns the following response:
twitter 0 p STARTED 3014 31.1mb 192.168.56.10 H5dfFeA
Example with a relocating shardedit
GET _cat/shards
The API returns the following response:
twitter 0 p RELOCATING 3014 31.1mb 192.168.56.10 H5dfFeA -> -> 192.168.56.30 bGG90GE
The RELOCATING
value in state
column indicates the index shard is
relocating.
Example with a shard statesedit
Before a shard is available for use, it goes through an INITIALIZING
state.
You can use the cat shards API to see which shards are initializing.
GET _cat/shards
The API returns the following response:
twitter 0 p STARTED 3014 31.1mb 192.168.56.10 H5dfFeA twitter 0 r INITIALIZING 0 14.3mb 192.168.56.30 bGG90GE
Example with reasons for unassigned shardsedit
The following request returns the unassigned.reason
column, which indicates
why a shard is unassigned.
GET _cat/shards?h=index,shard,prirep,state,unassigned.reason
The API returns the following response:
twitter 0 p STARTED 3014 31.1mb 192.168.56.10 H5dfFeA twitter 0 r STARTED 3014 31.1mb 192.168.56.30 bGG90GE twitter 0 r STARTED 3014 31.1mb 192.168.56.20 I8hydUG twitter 0 r UNASSIGNED ALLOCATION_FAILED
