Elasticsearch Error: SearchPhaseExecutionException: All Shards Failed

Never encountered this error before until now. I'm indexing the results of an aggregation query performed on hundreds and thousands of documents when things failed and I got this error.

[2018-11-22T00:00:27,020][INFO ][o.e.c.r.a.AllocationService] [kFDS8ms] Cluster health status changed from [RED] to [GREEN] (reason: [shards started [[.monitoring-es-6-2018.11.22][0]] ...]).

Here's my cluster settings. I researched about this online and most information that I could find were regarding unassigned shards, which doesn't seem to be the case for mine.

curl -XGET 'localhost:9200/_cluster/health?pretty' 
{
  "cluster_name" : "elasticsearch",
  "status" : "green",
  "timed_out" : false,
  "number_of_nodes" : 1,
  "number_of_data_nodes" : 1,
  "active_primary_shards" : 75,
  "active_shards" : 75,
  "relocating_shards" : 0,
  "initializing_shards" : 0,
  "unassigned_shards" : 0,
  "delayed_unassigned_shards" : 0,

  "task_max_waiting_in_queue_millis" : 0,
  "active_shards_percent_as_number" : 100.0
}

Apparently it was due to me performing the aggregation query on too many documents at one go. After I changed the time range from per month to half a month, it worked.
