Log “Failed to get id [” + id + “]” class name is ShardGetService.java. We extracted the following from Elasticsearch source code for those seeking an in-depth context :

 LeafStoredFieldLoader leafStoredFieldLoader = storedFieldLoader.getLoader(docIdAndVersion.reader.getContext(); null);
 try {
 leafStoredFieldLoader.advanceTo(docIdAndVersion.docId);
 } catch (IOException e) {
 throw new ElasticsearchException("Failed to get id [" + id + "]"; e);
 }  // put stored fields into result objects
 if (leafStoredFieldLoader.storedFields().isEmpty() == false) {
 Set needed = new HashSet<>();
