I have setup logstash on **server1** which is sending data to elastic-search( **server2** ) so that I visualise the same in Kibana but when I am creating index patter it throws **Internal Server Error** as show in the **following image.**

Please suggest how to fix this?

Can you check the logs of the Kibana server? There should be more info in there.

The above error is due to the following erros in logstash logs

```auto
[INFO] 2020-07-13 07:29:08.401 [[main]>worker0] elasticsearch - retrying failed action with response code: 429 ({"type"=>"cluster_block_exception", "reason"=>"index [blend] blocked by: [TOO_MANY_REQUESTS/12/index read-only / allow delete (api)];"})
[INFO] 2020-07-13 07:29:08.402 [[main]>worker0] elasticsearch - retrying failed action with response code: 429 ({"type"=>"cluster_block_exception", "reason"=>"index [blend] blocked by: [TOO_MANY_REQUESTS/12/index read-only / allow delete (api)];"})
[INFO] 2020-07-13 07:29:08.402 [[main]>worker0] elasticsearch - Retrying individual bulk actions that failed or were rejected by the previous bulk request. {:count=>2}

```

and after some searching, I found [this](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/solved-forbidden-to-create-index-pattern-in-kibana-7-2/190947) link and used the below command and it worked well

```
curl -XPUT -H "Content-Type: application/json" https://[YOUR_ELASTICSEARCH_ENDPOINT]:9200/_all/_settings -d '{"index.blocks.read_only_allow_delete": null}'

```

But again after **10 min or so** , I started getting above errors in logstash and I hit the curl command again. this is happening very frequently.

Is there **any permanent fix for this otherwise I had to hit the curl command many times** every 20 min or so

If this is a logstash error, please post this question in the Logstash category.

Are you running out of disk space?
