  • Hi Guys,

     

    Thanks for your comments. Will there be no issue with the current archives once Indexing engine was re-installed?

     

    Regards,

  • AS mentioned the cause in TN "This problem is the result of the core data files used by the 64 bit Indexing Engine becoming corrupted"

    If you reset indexing engine, it just update indexing files and Your archive can still be search. Or in other words, resetting index engine does not have any impact on archives.
     

  • Hello RyanKim,

    Resetting Indexing engine does not actually delete/modify archived data, hence there is no impact on current archives. After resetting the engine, it will initialize and update/sync the indexes metedata.

  • Hi All,

     

    Thanks for the feedback. The issue was resolve after reinstalling index service.
