hi All,

We are ingesting documents using logstash, all of a sudden i'm getting the below error.

`[[main]>worker1] elasticsearch - Encountered a retryable error. Will Retry with exponential backoff {:code=>400, :url=>"http://1.1.5.3:9200/_bulk"}`

Why am i getting this error, any advice on this please?

Thanks  
Gautham
