Hello @Rajesh123,

This is a circuit breaking exception, to prevent nodes from running out of JVM heap memory.

Pls check this doc for more details: [Circuit breaker errors | Elasticsearch Guide [8.10] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/circuit-breaker-errors.html)
