Hi all,

we are using ES 1.3.7 with 5 data cum master nodes  
In configuration, we have used "index.translog.interval : 5s"

last 15 days, translog doesnt flushed and size of translog gone to 4 GB.  
bounced a node and tried again no flush occurs.

How to resolve for automatic flush?

can any one help us!!

A good idea is to upgrade. So many things have been fixed in the mean time.
