Hi guys,

I have my Elasticsearch on one server and logstash on another.

I am getting the following error in my logstash, will need your inputs:

log4j, [2015-03-11T05:26:32.662] WARN:  
org.elasticsearch.discovery.zen.ping.unicast:  
[logstash-ip-172-xx-xxx-7-8623-2016] failed to send ping to  
[[#zen\_unicast\_1#][ip-172-xx-xx0-7][inet[/172.xx.xxx.71:9200]]]  
org.elasticsearch.transport.ReceiveTimeoutTransportException:  
[][inet[/172.31.100.71:9200]][discovery/zen/unicast] request\_id [402] timed  
out after [3750ms]  
at  
org.elasticsearch.transport.TransportService$TimeoutHandler.run(TransportService.java:356)  
at  
java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor.runWorker(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:1145)  
at  
java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:615)  
at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:745)

Any help would be highly appreciated.

TCP/9200 is for REST interface...Zen ping should be on 9300 ... I suspect
