Describe the issue:
The Linux Host is a non-internet-connected machine, where I want to install a test setup of OpenSearch for development.
I’m thinking how to install OpenSearch and I guess RPM install or TAR ball install is the way to go. RPM install has the issue that on this machine the root filesystem is small and yum/rpm don’t really allow for installing into custom locations. Therefore I think I’m stuck with TAR ball installation. Two questions about this:
(1) The installation guide says to do harsh system changes to swapoff and sysctl.conf. Just in order to try and test Opensearch with a few documents, do I really need to do so?
(2) Does the TAR ball contain everything I need to run OpenSearch on Linux? As said, the machine is not connected to the internet.
Thanks for any pointers!
