MarkLogic Reindexing Issue

Question

I am changing the index configurations on replica cluster in a database, but re-indexing is not getting triggered automatically whereas I have set the "reindexer enable" to "true".

Any thoughts around this?

Answer 1

In order to re-index the replica you have to re-index the master. You do this by adding the new index information to the replica first and then add it to the master. Once its added to the master reindexing should happen automatically. If it doesn't make sure you have re-indexing set to true on the master.
