Simple install

This is simplest way to install and use Marvel. Marvel data will be stored on the same cluster as the one being monitored and you will be able to access the Marvel UI from every node. Follow these steps on every node in the cluster:

From the Elasticsearch home directory, run:
```
bin/plugin -i elasticsearch/marvel/latest
```
Restart your Elasticsearch node

Once the plugin is installed on all nodes, you can access the Marvel UI by viewing http://any-server-in-cluster:9200/_plugin/marvel/ with any modern browser. It may take a minute for the initial data to appear.

A couple of points to consider:

Since this requires to restart the nodes of your cluster, you might want to temporarily disable allocations.
If you run your cluster using a non-standard port, you need to change the marvel.agent.exporter.es.hosts settings. See Configuration Options.
If your server doesn’t have direct internet access see Manual download for an alternative way to get the Marvel binaries.
