Troubleshooting search index issues

As an indicator of search index health, the search index directory (specified in the Setup wizard or automatic configuration) includes the marker file healthy.index. If this file is not present in the search index directory, Application Security attempts to recreate the index on each startup.

If attempts to create the initial index repeatedly fail, remove the entire index directory, and then restart Application Security.

If you are working with a large database (hundreds of GB), the Full Reindex job might fail because of limited system memory. If this occurs, increase the Java heap size for Application Security and then restart Application Security. For minimum and recommended values for Java heap size, see the Application Security Software System Requirements document.
