GET _cat/nodes?local is not completely local #50088

Closed

Description

The cat nodes API performs a ClusterStateAction then a NodesInfoAction. It accepts the ?local parameter and passes this to the ClusterStateAction but this parameter has no effect on the NodesInfoAction. This is surprising, because GET _cat/nodes?local looks like it might be a completely local call but in fact it still depends on every node in the cluster.

I think the ?local parameter does not make sense on this API and we should remove it.
