Is there a way to rebuild our CQ's (5.6) search index without incurring downtime and having to stop the instance?

Hi,

Looks like we have some nodes in CRXDE that do not show in search results. Is there a way to fix this issue without restarting our instance (actually we have a 2-instance cluster).

Also, is there a way to run a consistency check without restarting CQ5?

Thanks in advance.

Restart is required , however you can minimize the time by following http://www.wemblog.com/2011/09/how-to-reindex-large-repository.html

Hi Sham,

Would this work without restart: http://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/cq/current/deploying/upgrading/consistency-check.html?

If so, do we have to do it on each instance separately?

Thanks.

You can run  without restart during non peak load time
