Hi All,
Iam getting below exceptions, let me know what need to do here?
**Caused by: org.elasticsearch.ElasticsearchException: org.elasticsearch.common.breaker.CircuitBreakingException: Data too large, data for field [lastName.sortable] would be larger than limit of [425027174/405.3mb]**

But **[http://XX.XX.XX.XX](http://XX.XX.XX.XX):YYYY/\_nodes/stats/indices/fielddata?fields=lastName.sortable&human&pretty**
Shows the the field size is less than **50Mb** in all nodes.
FYI

Increase your heap size, decrease the amount of data you are querying, add more nodes, use doc values.
Basically any of the 3 and definitely the last one.
