jira background re-index

[Reneesh Kottakkalathil]

I accidentally closed the jira background indexing screen. How do I know if the indexing has completed? Any specific search term to check it in the atlassian-jira.log?

Hello @Reneesh Kottakkalathil ,

Whenever you perform a background re-indexing, a taskId is assigned to the job.

For example, as below:-

• http://<base_url>/secure/admin/jira/IndexProgress.jspa?taskId=10500

If the tab was just closed and the background re-indexing is still occurring, you can quickly reopen the tab with the taskId in the URL or perhaps locate the URL from your browser history.

If the tab was closed and the background indexing has already long completed, you should be able to locate the below entries in the logs:-

[c.a.j.w.a.admin.index.IndexAdminImpl] Re-indexing is 100% complete. Current index: 
[c.a.j.util.index.CompositeIndexLifecycleManager] Reindex All In Background complete. Total time: 239ms. Reindex run: 6
[c.a.j.w.a.admin.index.IndexAdminImpl] Re-indexing finished

Hope this helps.

Regards.
