I've been noticing some bundle distribution errors recently on one of my search heads. This search head is part of a 3 server search head cluster connecting to an indexer cluster. The message I am seeing is this:

I haven't had much luck finding anything on this on Answers or just searching for the issue. I've gone to the splunkd.log to search for this message but it actually shows truncated at the source, so there isn't "seeing it in full" there. May need to turn up logging level for it. Just wanted to see if anyone had any thoughts or have run into this before?
