Description

If no replicas of a shard are up and running, a search request gives the following response:

{
  "responseHeader": {
    "status": 503,
    "QTime": 2,
    "params": {
      "q": "*:*",
      "indent": "true",
      "wt": "json",
      "_": "1432048084930"
    }
  },
  "error": {
    "msg": "no servers hosting shard: ",
    "code": 503
  }
}

The message should mention the shard which is down/unreachable.
