Hello team
I am using ES 2.0.0 + Marvel 2.0.0.
Probably after some heavy indexing I am getting the periodical error in ES-log:
_[2015-11-20 10:35:45,199][WARN][shield.transport.netty] [by0kmh] Caught exception while handling client http traffic, closing connection [id: 0xe75b04f8, /10.205.114.251:17825 =\> /10.205.114.251:9200]_
_org.jboss.netty.handler.codec.frame.TooLongFrameException: **HTTP content length exceeded 104857600 bytes**._
_...._
_[2015-11-20 10:35:45,200][ERROR][**marvel.agent.exporter.http**] failed sending data to [[http://10.205.114.251:9200/\_bulk](http://10.205.114.251:9200/_bulk)]: IOException[Error writing to server]_
and cannot recover from that even after reconfiguration and reinstalling marvel-agent
My questions:
1. is there a parameter for marvel.agent.exporter like flush\_size to limit the es\_bulk content?
2. which internal cache/counter/dataset I have to clear to throw away the existing buffer and continue to work?
Thanks in advanced!

Thanks for reporting Kaem.
There's a bug in marvel where you can fall in under certain circumstances... and I think you hit this one. It will be fixed in the next releases.
How many indices & shards do you have?

Side note, you should reduce your shard count. You are probably wasting resources 🙂
