Hi, I'm upgrading elasticsearch cluster from 5.x to 7.0. I have setup a 7.0.0 cluster and then reindexed data from 5.x cluster. And then exported all the saved objects from Kibana instance to new one(Kibana 7.0.0). post this, I'm getting error of 'x of y shards failed' when trying to view some visualisations. There's nothing about this failure on kibana or elasticsearch logs. So how should i fix this error? Thanks for the help! ---

Could you screenshot the configuration of the visualization that's causing this to happen, as well as provide your mapping? It could be a number of things. ---
