Hi All,

I am Using "elasticsearch-action-updatebyquery"

Refer : [https://github.com/yakaz/elasticsearch-action-updatebyquery](https://github.com/yakaz/elasticsearch-action-updatebyquery)

API : The following api will do update bulk "Segment ids" to mached documents.

Example : segmentId= 50 needs to update on more then 20 million documents.

Map\<String, Object\> scriptParams = new HashMap\<String, Object\>();  
scriptParams.put("segmentexist", segId);  
scriptParams.put("pgsegmentobject", pgSegmentIds);

```
	UpdateByQueryClient updateByQueryClient = new UpdateByQueryClientWrapper(client);

	UpdateByQueryResponse response = updateByQueryClient.prepareUpdateByQuery().setIndices(props.getProperty("index")).setTypes(props.getProperty("type"))
			.setTimeout(TimeValue.timeValueHours(24))
			.setIncludeBulkResponses(BulkResponseOption.ALL)

			.setScript("if (ctx._source.containsKey(\"pgSegmentIds\") ) { if (ctx._source.pgSegmentIds.contains(segmentexist) ) { ctx.op = \"none\" } else { ctx._source.pgSegmentIds += pgsegmentobject} } else { ctx._source.pgSegmentIds = pgsegmentobject }")
			.setScriptParams(scriptParams)

			.setQuery(query)

			.execute()
			.actionGet();

```

Its failing while update. I see the following exception.

2015-09-12 05:58:10 INFO transport:123 - [Moon Knight] failed to get local cluster state for [#transport#-1][ip-10-186-199-195][inet[localhost/10.31.48.47:9300]], disconnecting...

I have done following setup

1. We are having 5 nodes, with 5 shards.
2. We have set, put("client.transport.sniff", true)

still I get the above exception. Please help.
