Problem replicating config (bundle) to search peer 'server:8089', timed out reading http reply.
I am getting the above error in my Distributed Search environment.

We have a load balanced address in front of 2 search heads with 2 indexers on the back end.

I don't know how big the rep bundle is.

distsearch.conf file only has the following lines:

[distributedSearch]
servers = server1:port,server2:port

How big is your replication bundle ?

What are your settings in the replicationSettings stanza of you distsearch.conf file ?

FYI : there is also an option to mount bundles (using shared storage) rather than replication.
