Ingesting traffic from td-agent to elasticsearch index created, I see the process fails in the ingestion after some days working fine.

This is the error I got and the index stop ingresing traffic:

Hey,

it seems there is either no Elasticsearch instance listening on `10.2.1.14:9200` or maybe the process is down, or the it cannot be reached via the network. Please ensure that Elasticsearch is started and listening on that address/port and it can be reached from the logging component.
