I am getting the exception everytime while starting the server,
```

```
There's no bulk operation happening. All servers are accessible through CURL from the same machine I am trying to run my RestClient implementation. Below is my implementation,
```
@Override
protected RestClient createInstance() throws Exception {
List serverList = serverConfig.getServer();
HttpHost[] hosts = new HttpHost[serverList.size()];
for (int i = 0; i < hosts.length; i++) {
hosts[i] = HttpHost.create(serverList.get(i));
}
logger.info("Initiallizing Elasticsearch RestClient");
RestClient restClient = RestClient.builder(hosts).setMaxRetryTimeoutMillis(60000)
.setDefaultHeaders(Constants.HEADERS).setFailureListener(loggingFailureListener)
.setRequestConfigCallback((b) -> customizeRequestConfig(b)).build();
if (enableSniffer) {
this.sniffer = Sniffer.builder(restClient).build();
}
logger.info("Initiallized Elasticsearch RestClient");
return restClient;
}
private RequestConfig.Builder customizeRequestConfig(RequestConfig.Builder builder) {
return builder.setConnectionRequestTimeout(0).setSocketTimeout(5000).setConnectTimeout(60000);
}
```
