Installed latest elasticsearch (1.5) and AFAICT they all seem to be there -
the PMDA functions fine here and values are returned after a minimal setup
(so no actual indices, single node cluster, etc) ... hmm, so not clear what
is going on in your case there Chandana.

When I said earlier the pmda was "same as issuing a curl" - thats not quite
correct.  The PMDA uses the perl lightweight http client (LWP::UserAgent is
the name of the module - perhaps it has global configuration state somewhere
outside the PMDA?).  Or do you have elasticsearch on a non-default port?

cheers.
