How to connect OVA to Elasticsearch outside of the OVA

Graylog Central (peer support)
1

I’m using the Graylog OVA and would like to connect it to my separately-installed Elasticsearch node outside of the OVA. I ran the following command in the OVA:

sudo graylog-ctl reconfigure-as-server

Should I in fact have run the above command “reconfigure-as-server” in my scenario or was that a mistake?

In the non-OVA docs, I see that server.conf has a setting for elasticsearch_hosts in order to connect to an Elasticsearch node/cluster. However, the OVA doesn’t have server.conf, and I don’t see any way to configure Graylog to point to an external Elasticsearch node… Can this be done from the OVA, or do you have to use Elasticsearch inside the OVA?

Thanks,
Andy
