Auto Creation of Map/Type Failure

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi,

I am working on creating a data sync between sql server & elasticsearch. In elasticsearch I have created an index
with a mapping 'default' (note this default mapping has 900+ fields). The type of the document is mapping to a field in sql server & every time I sync a record that is of a new type, elasticsearch goes ahead and auto creates the type for me (based on the default type that is created). The issue I am running into is sometimes this auto creation of the type takes several minutes to create and can fail with the error message below. Anyone has any ideas how to resolve this? I am using Elasticsearch 5.0.

That's a pretty large mapping, and probably part of the problem.

I believe so too, however, apart from reducing the size of the mapping, any ideas?
