Reconfigure

Description

The reconfigure operation re-creates the index service metadata, schema, and data in the event it becomes corrupted. This operation may take a while to finish. During this time, the index service may not respond to index queries. Keep in mind that reconfigure may not address out-of-sync indices, where the counts in the database and index do not match.

Caution:

ArcGIS Enterprise portal content and search operations will be unavailable until the reindex is complete. Performing the reindex operation during system maintenance or downtime is recommended.
