Hi All,

When doing bulk indexing using transport client, if there are rejections from ES because queues are full, how do we retry these?

I tried Retry.on(EsRejectedExecutionException.class)..withSyncBackoff, but looks like it doesn't work with Transport client.

Any suggestions and if anyone can share a sample code, that would be great

Thanks  
Ashok
