Hi

According to the following guide, In case of re-creation of the index files, the server must be shut down.
  • What does "the server" mean?
  • Is there any official documents which defines about "the server"?
https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Deployment/BackupCLM#Re_creating_the_index_files
  • You can re-create the index files from a restored database backup. Be aware that re-creation of the index files is an expensive operation and must performed with the server shut down.

My understanding is that it is only application server process. It does not mean database.

Thank you in advance.

I don't see the official definition of server  here in repotools reindex command but it is referring to application server. You are right it does not mean database. We never need to shut down database in order to run this reindex command.

This is help for this reindex command.

The best article for reindexing could be:

It implies that the server is application server such as jts/ccm/qm

I think there is no command in the repotools, that requires the DB to be down. In fact several that require the application server being down access the database and require it being up.
