General Feedback

I am trying to upgrade from elasticsearch 6.8 to opendistro 1.6.0
I’m following cluster restart upgrade steps
but after starting elasticsearch when trying to query elastic search for nodes its says
Open Distro Security not initialized.
Then I try to enable security by running the securityadmin.sh script
Script is able to connect to cluster but Im getting following error:

Elasticsearch Version: 7.6.1
Open Distro Security Version: 1.6.0.0

.opendistro_security index already exists, so we do not need to create one.

Populate config from /usr/share/elasticsearch/plugins/opendistro_security/securityconfig/

   FAIL: Configuration for 'config' failed because of UnavailableShardsException[[.opendistro_security][0] primary shard is not active Timeout: [1m],

Can someone let me know how to proceed.

Apologies for the delay. Please download the latest version of Open Distro for Elasticsearch. In case you are still facing this issue, please raise a Github Issue.
