Hello,

I currently have 1 master node and 1 data node running in the same datacenter communicating over internal networking. When I try to create a snapshot from the master node, it gives me a internal server error with the reason node shutdown on the index I'm trying to snapshot. I looked into it and the data node's elasticsearch crashed.

This is the log from the Data node
