Hello can anyone help me with this. Getting following error in logstash logs

[2017-09-05T23:47:53,660][INFO ][logstash.outputs.elasticsearch] retrying failed action with response code: 503 ({"type"=>"unavailable_shards_exception", "reason"=>"[filebeat-2017.09.05][2] primary shard is not active Timeout: [1m], request: [BulkShardRequest [[filebeat-2017.09.05][2]] containing [27] requests]"})

Current index state

Had earlier deleted all index. Would that be the cause for this error? How Do I resolve this now?
