[Remote clusters] Warn users of missing node role #90217

Open alisonelizabeth opened 3 years ago

alisonelizabeth commented 3 years ago

In order for a remote cluster to be configured correctly, it explicitly needs the remote_cluster_client node role set.

A user could define a remote cluster via PUT _cluster/settings, but without this node role set, the output of GET /_remote/info will return an empty object {}. This could be potentially confusing to users. In the case of the remote clusters UI, it would appear that there are no remote clusters.

Proposal: Consider displaying a warning callout in the remote clusters UI in this scenario to let users know that the node role may not be configured.

@zanbel Can you confirm that Cloud deployments will contain the remote_cluster_client node role by default?

EDIT: The answer is yes.
