I am trying to use es-hadoop to move csv with 570 columns from hadoop to elasticsearch.  
However, an error occurred:  
Limit of total fields [1000] in index [shortterm] has been exceeded; Bailing out..

Three questions:

1. I only have 570 fields, why is limit of the total fields [1000] reached?
2. Is there any way to set the limit of total fields with one of the configuration keywords ([https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/hadoop/5.3/configuration.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/hadoop/5.3/configuration.html))?
3. Is it possible to disable dynamic mapping and only index a few fields with one of the configuration keywords?
