Elasticsearch需要Java的最低版本的Java 8。在本文写作的时候,推荐使用Oracle JDK 1.8.0_73 版本。Java的安装,在各个平台上都有差异,所以我们不会在这里详细的介绍。在Oracle官网可以找到Oracle的推荐安装文档。我想说的是,在安装Elasticsearch之前,你可以通过以下命令来检查你的Java版本(如果有需要,请安装或者升级):
java -version
echo $JAVA_HOME
curl -L -O https://download.elasticsearch.org/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-1.4.2.tar.gz
tar -xvf elasticsearch-5.3.0.tar.gz
cd elasticsearch-5.3.0/bin

另外需要注意到http那行关于HTTP的地址(192.168.8.112)和端口(9200)信息。默认情况下,Elasticsearch使用9200来提供对其REST API的访问。如果有必要,这个端口是可以配置的。
