Hi,

we have a 9 nodes cluster in production that has been running for 10 days without any issues until a couple days ago when we increased the shard number from 2 shards & 1 replica to 3 shards & 1 replica.

Juste after the daily index rotation, i noticed a couple of timed out error on one of the data nodes.

Data node log :

```

    ]
  }
}

```

I am not sure about the reason behind this error, could it be that adding a shard caused the data nodes to timeout?  
Do you think that increasing the data nodes heap size would resolve this issue ?

The thing is it only hapends around the time went we take snapshots.

Any help is appreciated, thank you in advance.
