Reindex failed: search_context_missing_exception

I want to migrate a index from es5 cluster to es7 cluster by using remote reindexing.
The number of docs is 5,000,000.
I use curl to call the _reindex api like this:

curl -uelastic:xxx -XPOST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' http://127.0.0.1:9200/_reindex?scroll=60m\&wait_for_completion=false -d'
{
    "source": {
    "remote": {
        "host": "http://1.1.1.1:9200",
        "username": "elastic",
        "password": "xxx"
    },
    "index": "my_index",
    "size": 8000
  },
  "dest": {
    "index": "my_index"
  }
}'

I tried several times but all the tasks failed quickly after 10-20 batches. They have the same error:search_context_missing_exception.
I know the error often occurs when the scroll context is removed for expiring.I have set the scroll=60m and the speed of reindexing is very fast.
