Hi

this message told that you haven't have enough indexers up and running. E.g. if your RF=3 and you have only 2 indexers up it cannot fulfil requirement of 3 separate version of data. This has fixed when you have enough indexers up to fulfil your SF & RF and if you have multisite cluster also site_search_factor and site_replication_factor.
