Hi Spencer,

Below is screenshot :

We have similar question asked earlier but no resolution : [Terminate long running queries to protect the system from DoS](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/terminate-long-running-queries-to-protect-the-system-from-dos/23811/10)

The issue occurs if a user fires a long running query from Kibana which times out after 300000ms as shown in screenshot. This makes Kibana inaccessible to other users as well. While the status is red I am able to query ES health using curl. Hope this clarifies.

Thanks  
Bal
