Continuing the discussion from [Logstash stuck on "Will Retry with exponential backoff"](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/logstash-stuck-on-will-retry-with-exponential-backoff/220221):

we are seeing below error in logstash logs

```auto
[2022-06-10T04:59:38,367][ERROR][logstash.filters.ruby] Ruby exception occurred: 
[2022-06-10T04:59:47,243][ERROR][logstash.outputs.elasticsearch] Encountered a retryable error. Will Retry with exponential backoff {:code=>413, :url=>"http://elasticsearch:9200/_bulk"}

```

we tried to update below parameter values in Elasticsearch and logstash, no luck

Elasticsearch.yml: :

http.compression: true  
http.max\_content\_length: 1200mb  
http.max\_header\_size: 32kb  
http.max\_initial\_line\_length: 16kb  
http.pipelining.max\_events: 100000

logstash.yaml:

`pipeline.batch.size: 125`

Requesting your help please?
