An HTTP 503: Service Unavailable error indicates a problem with a server somewhere in the network. It is most likely related to a node restart affecting your primary shard(s) before a replica can be promoted.
The easiest solution is to simply catch and retry HTTP 503's. If you've seen this several times in a short period of time, please send us an email and we will investigate.
