Hi,  
During indexing I got this exception :  
org.elasticsearch.common.util.concurrent.EsRejectedExecutionException: rejected execution (shutting down) on org.elasticsearch.transport.TransportService.  
Why it saying (shutting down), shutdown what ? The index cluster looks working fine, nothing is shutted down or this is something else ? In the servers elasticsearch logs everything looks ok and there not exceptions or errors.

Please advise.  
Thanks
