A tag is required to reuse Elasticsearch breaking changes in the Stack
Guide. To display properly, the breaking changes must use external
links rather than xrefs.
This PR correctly places those tags for reuse. It also replaces
several xrefs with external links for reuse.
In #55805, we added a setting to allow single data node clusters to
respect the high watermark. In #73733 we added the related deprecations.
This commit ensures the only valid value for the setting is true and
adds deprecations if the setting is set. The setting will be removed
in a future release.

These settings were deprecated in 7.13+ in #72835 and are now removed by this commit.
This commit also ensures that the settings are removed from index metadata when the metadata is
loaded. The reason for this is that if we allow the settings to remain (because they are not
technically "invalid"), then the index will not be able to be allocated, because the
FilterAllocationDecider will be looking for nodes with the _tier attribute.
This commit removes the bootstrap.system_call_filter setting, as
starting in Elasticsearch 8.0.0 we are going to require that system call
filters be installed and that this is not user configurable. Note that
while we force bootstrap to attempt to install system call filters, we
only enforce that they are installed via a bootstrap check in production
environments. We can consider changing this behavior, but leave that for
future consideration and thus a potential follow-up change.
We are going to require system call filters. This commit is the first
step in that journey, which is to deprecate the setting that allows
disabling system call filters.
Changes:
* Renames 'full copy searchable snapshot' to 'fully mounted index.'
* Renames 'shared cache searchable snapshot' to 'partially mounted index.'
* Removes some unneeded cache setup instructions for the frozen tier. We added a default cache size with #71844.
We previously allowed but deprecated the ability for the shared cache to
be positively sized on nodes without the frozen role. This is because we
only allocate shared_cache searchable snapshots to nodes with the frozen
role. This commit completes our intention to deprecate/remove this
ability.
This commit removes the following deprecated settings in v8:
- `gateway.expected_nodes`
- `gateway.expected_master_nodes`
- `gateway.recover_after_nodes`
- `gateway.recover_after_master_nodes`

This commit removes the `prefer_v2_templates` flag and setting. This was a brief setting that
allowed specifying whether V1 or V2 template should be used when an index is created. It has been
removed in favor of V2 templates always having priority.
Relates to #53101Resolves#56528
This is not a breaking change because this flag was never in a released version.
In 7.8.0, we deprecated the settings for disabling
basic license feature APIs. This PR removes those
settings altogether for 8.0. This is a breaking
change: if these options appear in elasticsearch.yml,
they will no longer be recognized.
The following settings are now no-ops:
* xpack.flattened.enabled
* xpack.logstash.enabled
* xpack.rollup.enabled
* xpack.slm.enabled
* xpack.sql.enabled
* xpack.transform.enabled
* xpack.vectors.enabled
Since these settings no longer need to be checked, we can remove settings
parameters from a number of constructors and methods, and do so in this
commit.
We also update documentation to remove references to these settings.
* Make xpack.monitoring.enabled setting a no-op
This commit turns xpack.monitoring.enabled into a no-op. Mostly, this involved
removing the setting from the setup for integration tests. Monitoring may
introduce some complexity for test setup and teardown, so we should keep an eye
out for turbulence and failures
* Docs for making deprecated setting a no-op
* Make xpack.ilm.enabled setting a no-op
* Add watcher setting to not use ILM
* Update documentation for no-op setting
* Remove NO_ILM ml index templates
* Remove unneeded setting from test setup
* Inline variable definitions for ML templates
* Use identical parameter names in templates
* New ILM/watcher setting falls back to old setting
* Add fallback unit test for watcher/ilm setting
Adds `//tag::notable-breaking-changes[]` to several breaking changes
files. This tag is required for reuse in the [Elastic Stack Installation
and Upgrade Guide][0].
Also replaces a relative xref with an external links. External links are
required for reuse in the Installation and Upgrade Guide.

As a followup to #55411, this commit changes the default for the `?prefer_v2_templates` querystring
parameter to be `true`. This means that V2 templates will take precedence by default in 8.0+
Relates to #53101
We believe there's no longer a need to be able to disable basic-license
features completely using the "xpack.*.enabled" settings. If users don't
want to use those features, they simply don't need to use them. Having
such features always available lets us build more complex features that
assume basic-license features are present.
This commit deprecates settings of the form "xpack.*.enabled" for
basic-license features, excluding "security", which is a special case.
It also removes deprecated settings from integration tests and unit
tests where they're not directly relevant; e.g. monitoring and ILM are
no longer disabled in many integration tests.
In 7.8.0 the node.local_storage setting was deprecated in favor of
requiring all nodes to have a form of persistent storage. This commit
removes the node.local_storage setting.
This setting is not documented and has dubious value since it means
there can be nodes in the cluster (non-data and non-master nodes) that
do not have persistent node IDs. This does not have any use cases so
this commit removes the setting.
In Elasticsearch 7.7.0, the setting cluster.remote.connect was
deprecated. In this commit, we remote the setting permanently in favor
of setting node.remote_cluster_client.
This commit completes the work to remove the listener thread pool,
having removed all uses of it in the server codebase, and deprecated it
in 7.x. With this commit, we also remove the infrastructgure to
deprecate a fixed thread pool, which was added as part of this work,
since it is easy to bring back if needed.
The processors setting was deprecated in version 7.4.0 of Elasticsearch
for removal in Elasticsearch 8.0.0. This commit removes the processors
setting.
We deprecated these settings awhile ago, in favor of cluster.remote. In
7.x we were gentle and provided automatic upgrade of these settings to
the new settings. Now it is time for them to go. This commit removes the
deprecated search.remote settings.
