Issue
- The server can not be started correctly with ES errors like the following:
2020-06-05 06:45:41.596 ERROR [Framework Event Dispatcher: Equinox Container: 2a6f419e-c609-4e73-a180-4e901fcc9b18][Framework:93] FrameworkEvent ERROR

On DXP 7.3, the error will look like this:

Environment
- Liferay DXP 7.2
- Liferay DXP 7.3
- Liferay DXP 7.4
Resolution
- The issue is mainly caused by Elastic Search cluster status. As we can see in the log, the Elastic search cluster status is RED ( _clusterHealthStatus=RED) which causes Liferay failed to initialize correctly.
- Please resolve the Elastic Search Cluster issue first, then restart the Liferay server.
