+`discovery.type`::
+
+    Specifies whether {es} should form a multiple-node cluster. By default, {es}
+    discovers other nodes when forming a cluster and allows other nodes to join
+    the cluster later. If `discovery.type` is set to `single-node`, {es} forms a
+    single-node cluster. For more information about when you might use this
+    setting, see <<single-node-discovery>>.    
 
 `cluster.initial_master_nodes`::
 
-    Sets a list of the <<node.name,node names>> or transport addresses of the
-    initial set of master-eligible nodes in a brand-new cluster. By default
-    this list is empty, meaning that this node expects to join a cluster that
-    has already been bootstrapped. See <<initial_master_nodes>>.
