Error message
批量索引失败
What it means
ElasticsearchClientWrapper.bulkIndex() performs a BulkRequest and wraps any IOException in a RuntimeException "批量索引失败" ("Bulk indexing failed"). This signals a transport-level failure to send the bulk request or read the response; partial per-item failures inside a successful response are only logged, not thrown.

Solutions
- Check the wrapped IOException cause for the real network/timeout error.
- Verify cluster health and that the node is reachable during the bulk operation.
- Reduce bulk batch size or split large payloads to stay under http.max_content_length.
- Increase request timeouts and add retry-with-backoff around bulkIndex.
- Note the code only throws on IOException — also inspect result.items() logs for per-document failures.
Example fix
// before
catch (IOException e) { throw new RuntimeException("批量索引失败", e); }
// after
catch (IOException e) { throw new RuntimeException("批量索引失败: " + e.getMessage(), e); } // plus retry wrapper for transient failures Defensive patterns
Strategy: retry
Validate before calling
// keep batches under limits
if (documents.size() > 1000) { throw new IllegalArgumentException("batch too large, split it"); } Try / catch
try { wrapper.bulkIndex(index, docs); }
catch (RuntimeException e) {
if (e.getCause() instanceof IOException && attempt < MAX) { backoff(); retry(docs); }
else throw e;
} Prevention
- Use small bulk batches (500–1000 docs) instead of giant payloads
- Verify es http.max_content_length accommodates your batch size
- Track per-item failures from result.items(), not just the thrown exception
- Schedule bulk loads away from cluster maintenance windows
When it happens
Trigger: Calling bulkIndex() with documents when the ES connection drops mid-request, the request times out on large payloads, or the node is unreachable while executing client.bulk().
Common situations: Bulk-loading a large dataset during a network hiccup; ES node restart mid-write; request payload exceeding http.max_content_length; timeout from slow indexing under load.
