Briefly, this error occurs when Elasticsearch encounters an issue while trying to delete interim results associated with a specific JobId. This could be due to insufficient permissions, a network issue, or the interim results no longer exist. To resolve this, you can check the user permissions to ensure they have the right to delete interim results. Also, verify the network connectivity between Elasticsearch nodes. Lastly, confirm that the interim results associated with the JobId still exist and haven’t been deleted by another process.
