Hi All,

 

I have created custom Lucene index and it works fine in local but when I try deploy the same to Cloud, this new index impacting other queries where they use cq:tags. 

 

<lucene-0-custom-2
jcr:primaryType="oak:QueryIndexDefinition"
async="[async,nrt]"
compatVersion="{Long}2"
evaluatePathRestrictions="{Boolean}true"
includedPaths="[/content/dam/mch/train-center/en]"
queryPaths="[/content/dam/mch/train-center/en]"
maxFieldLength="{Long}100000"
reindexCount="{Long}6"
type="lucene">
<indexRules jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured">
<nt:unstructured
jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
indexNodeName="{Boolean}true">
<properties jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured">
<dcTitle
jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
boost="{Double}2.0"
name="jcr:content/metadata/dc:title"
nodeScopeIndex="{Boolean}true"
ordered="{Boolean}true"
propertyIndex="{Boolean}true"
useInSpellcheck="{Boolean}true"
useInSuggest="{Boolean}true"/>
</properties>
</nt:unstructured>
</indexRules>
</lucene-0-custom-2>

 

When I try to delete the index from Cloud environment, type property setting as a "disabled" and not removing from Cloud environment.

Hi @rr_mr 
Please check https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/experience-manager-cloud-service/content/operations/indexing 

 

Removing an Index

The following only applies to custom indexes. Product indexes may not be removed as they are used by AEM.

A customized index may be removed in a later version of the customer application, by removing it from the customer repository. An index which is removed from the repository is not used for queries in AEM although it might still be present in the instances for a while. There is a clean-up mechanism in place that runs periodically which cleans up older versions of indexes from the instances.

    There is a acs-commons tool for managing oak index. Can check that also.
