Updated deploy-elastic script – version 8

Last update to version 7 is listed here

The original post for the deploy-elastic.sh script is here.

Changes:

• fully tested from 6.x-8.2(will most likely work with future 8.x versions)
• decoupled non stack modes from checking versions so that you can add the secondary components like monitoring/fleet/apm/enterprise-search using different version than the stack version. Just install the stack first then install the secondary components with different versions.
  • Secondary versions can not be higher than the stack version.
  • This will allow you to test using different versions
• fleet setting is now auto-populated. The script will gather the machines external IP and set it for Fleet Server hosts, Elasticsearch hosts, & Advanced Settings to set the CA.

for 7.x

for 8,x
