Opensearch Migration with xpack.security

[robertnaylor]

We are trying to upgrade our existing Elasticsearch cluster to OpenSearch but it can not join the cluster

We get the following errors OpenSearchException[Transport client authentication no longer supported.]

We have https/xpack.security enabled using inbuilt user database in elastic search

Is it even possible to migrate this? Or do we need to disable security and then start afresh once all nodes have been switched to opensearch?

Hey @robertnaylor

@robertnaylor

Or do we need to disable security

yes, the documentation does show to disable security like this.

plugins.security.disabled: true
