Before you begin reading this guide, we recommend you run Elasticsearch Error Check-Up which analyzes 2 JSON files to detect many errors.

To easily locate the root cause and resolve this issue try AutoOps for Elasticsearch & OpenSearch. It diagnoses problems by analyzing hundreds of metrics collected by a lightweight agent and offers guidance for resolving them.

This guide will help you check for common problems that cause the log ” Incompatible cluster state version resending complete cluster state ” to appear. To understand the issues related to this log, read the explanation below about the following Elasticsearch concepts: cluster, discovery and version.

Log Context

Log “incompatible cluster state version – resending complete cluster state” classname is LocalDiscovery.java.
We extracted the following from Elasticsearch source code for those seeking an in-depth context :

                         }
                        try {
                            newNodeSpecificClusterState = discovery.lastProcessedClusterState.readDiffFrom(StreamInput.wrap(clusterStateDiffBytes)).apply(discovery.lastProcessedClusterState);
                            logger.trace("sending diff cluster state version [{}] with size {} to [{}]"; clusterState.version(); clusterStateDiffBytes.length; discovery.localNode().getName());
                        } catch (IncompatibleClusterStateVersionException ex) {
                            logger.warn("incompatible cluster state version - resending complete cluster state"; ex);
                        }
                    }
                    if (newNodeSpecificClusterState == null) {
                        if (clusterStateBytes == null) {
                            clusterStateBytes = Builder.toBytes(clusterState);
