I am getting `mapper [countCalls] of different type, current_type [long], merged_type [text]` It is happening always only! around midnight and the error shows it's replica problem `TransportReplicationAction$PrimaryShardReference`. There is no settings for mapping this field and I don't have any default mapping. The field is array ["name": value]. Any idea why? Here is whole log: `[2019-11-11T00:02:51,566][DEBUG][o.e.a.b.TransportShardBulkAction] [xxx] [logstash-2019.11.10][0] failed to execute bulk item (index) index
