Hi, all

I'm using fluentd to collect logs and send them to elasticsearch but facing below issue, how to fix it? Thanks for the help.

Elasticsearch version: 5.4.0 with default elasticsearch.yml

error log from fluentd:

```auto
2017-06-30 21:42:32 +0800 [warn]: temporarily failed to flush the buffer. next_retry=2017-06-30 21:47:32 +0800 error_class="Elasticsearch::Transport::Transport::Errors::RequestEntityTooLarge" error="[413] <html>\r\n<head><title>413 Request Entity Too Large</title></head>\r\n<body bgcolor=\"white\">\r\n<center><h1>413 Request Entity Too Large</h1></center>\r\n<hr><center>nginx/1.12.0</center>\r\n</body>\r\n</html>\r\n" plugin_id="object:3fb0497ca950"
