Hi Grand toubab, 
 AFAIK we see this error when there is a lack of resources available which results in a timeout while the scan is being performed. If there are not enough resources, for instance, Disk I/O, CPU or Network I/O, etc. the scan can timeout. 
 Is this happening frequently or was it the first time this occurred?
