Hey all !
I've some simple integration test (add an entry then get it, or simple
stuff like that) that start a node, from time to time ([pseudo]-
randomly) I've got the following exception:
org.elasticsearch.cluster.block.ClusterBlockException: blocked by: [1/
not recovered from gateway];
at
org.elasticsearch.cluster.block.ClusterBlocks.indexBlockedRaiseException(ClusterBlocks.java:
112)

Does anyone experimented the same issue ? any idea why this happen ?
Thanks a lot,

Didn't made a search before posting (shame on me) so I found that:
[http://groups.google.com/a/elasticsearch.com/group/users/browse\_thread/thread/6d37daf47d667874/8a18be1d4760b18a?lnk=gst&q=ClusterBlockException#8a18be1d4760b18a](http://groups.google.com/a/elasticsearch.com/group/users/browse_thread/thread/6d37daf47d667874/8a18be1d4760b18a?lnk=gst&q=ClusterBlockException#8a18be1d4760b18a)
But... that's look a bit tricky, any advice Shay ?

Which version are you using? the create index API will now automatically retry if its blocked. In any case, you can also wait for yellow cluster state.

Just for information was still falling pseudo-randomly with last
version (0.15.2), don't know how many retry create index does...
But after adding the cluster health everything rock...
Cheers,

If you can recreate a simple testcase, I can give it a spin.
