Briefly, this error occurs when the Elasticsearch prewarming process is interrupted. Prewarming is a process where Elasticsearch loads frequently accessed indices into memory to speed up search operations. Interruptions could be due to system issues, insufficient resources, or abrupt shutdowns. To resolve this, ensure your system has enough resources (CPU, memory, disk space) to handle the prewarming process. Also, check for any system instability or network issues that could be causing interruptions. Lastly, ensure a graceful shutdown of Elasticsearch to prevent such errors.
