Hi List,

we have recently upgraded our ES cluster (12 nodes, ~900GB data) from  
0.90.9 to 1.4.2. We did a restart-upgrade, so backup data and then start  
the new ES version with the old data directories.

Since then we're seeing lot of messages like "re-syncing mappings with  
cluster state for types ..." in the log of the master node, about 5-10  
every second (Once for each index). The load and network traffic on the  
machines also seems to have increased quite a bit.

Some googling showed me various older (0.17/0.18) questions about this, and  
that it's related to serialization of the mapping. Our mapping is here:

> <https://gist.github.com/anonymous/33b7ba153794e739fd33>

One suggested quick fix i found was to close/re-open the affected indices.  
Other suggestions? Or tips how to debug why this is going wrong, and what  
to change in the mapping?

How serious is this? Does this need immediate attention, or should the  
cluster survive for a while?

best regards,  
Eike Dehling

Did you upgrade Java as well as ES? What version are you on?

Thanks for the response. We did not upgrade java, we're running java  
1.7.0\_45, and Elasticsearch 1.4.2.

For anyone else running into this: We did manage to "solve" the issue by  
closing and re-opening all indices. After that the continuous  
re-synchronization stopped. Certain events start it again though: For  
example moving a shard. Closing/re-opening an index then "solves" it again  
though.

regards, Eike
