Description
Describe the feature request
We updated our Elasticsearch instances to Version 8.15.0 using the Rolling update feature of the collection, which works good. The cluster was available all the time.
With the update we changed some parameters in the Elasticsearch config. Now the Collection performs the parameter change as part of the "normal" installation process, after all Nodes where updated. This means the config is changed on all nodes and all Nodes are restarted at once using a handler. This full cluster restart causes that the cluster is unavailable for some time.
For us it makes no sense to perform a rolling update with a lot of tasks to make shure that the Cluster is available all the time and perform afterwards a full cluster restart which leads to the opposite.
Please implement a "graceful" cluster restart (with rolling restarts and cluster health checks) after a config change of Elasticsearch
