Parallelism should be at least 1 – How to solve this Elasticsearch exception

August-23, Version: 7.4-7.17

Briefly, this error occurs when the parallelism parameter in Elasticsearch is set to a value less than 1. Parallelism refers to the number of threads used for operations like reindexing. A value less than 1 is invalid as it implies no threads are available. To resolve this, you should set the parallelism parameter to a value of 1 or more. This can be done by adjusting the settings in your Elasticsearch configuration file or by using the appropriate API call. Be cautious not to set the value too high as it may overload the system.
