NAME
gerrit index start - Start the online indexer
SYNOPSIS
'ssh' -p <port> <host> 'gerrit index start'
DESCRIPTION
Gerrit supports online index schema upgrades. When starting Gerrit for the first time after an upgrade that requires an index schema upgrade, the online indexer will be started. If the schema upgrade is a success, the new index will be activated and if it fails, a statement in the logs will be printed with the number of successfully/failed indexed changes.
This command allows restarting the online indexer without having to restart Gerrit. This command will not start the indexer if it is already running or if the active index is the latest.
ACCESS
