Briefly, this error occurs when there is a version mismatch between the Elasticsearch node and the job you are trying to persist. This could be due to an upgrade or downgrade of Elasticsearch that hasn’t been fully propagated. To resolve this issue, you can either upgrade or downgrade the node to match the job version, or reindex the job to match the node version. Additionally, ensure that all nodes in your cluster are running the same version of Elasticsearch to prevent such issues.
