To complete this tutorial, you need:

* The `manage` cluster privilege on the local cluster.
* A license on both clusters that includes {{ccr}}. [Activate a free 30-day trial](../../license/manage-your-license-in-self-managed-cluster.md).
* An index on the remote cluster that contains the data you want to replicate. This tutorial uses the sample eCommerce orders data set. [Load sample data](../../../explore-analyze/index.md#gs-get-data-into-kibana).
* In the local cluster, all nodes with the `master` [node role](elasticsearch://reference/elasticsearch/configuration-reference/node-settings.md#node-roles) must also have the [`remote_cluster_client`](../../distributed-architecture/clusters-nodes-shards/node-roles.md#remote-node) role. The local cluster must also have at least one node with both a data role and the [`remote_cluster_client`](../../distributed-architecture/clusters-nodes-shards/node-roles.md#remote-node) role. Individual tasks for coordinating replication scale based on the number of data nodes with the `remote_cluster_client` role in the local cluster.

- Both clusters must have the same [license](/deploy-manage/license.md) type, and that license must support {{ccr}}.
