To verify the template

curl -XGET 'http://elkdm1.domain.com:9200/_template/web-sql-log?pretty' 

On Linux – Add to startup scripts

# On linux append in /etc/init.d/elasticsearch in line starting with daemon --user
--node.box_type warm

Note: On Solaris its part of SMF startup

To Get cluster status

curl elkdm3.domain.com:9200/_nodes/stats/process?pretty

# Or Memory locking
curl http://elkdm4.domain.com:9200/_nodes/process?pretty|grep mlockall
