NAME

ScanTrackingIds - Rescan changes to index trackingids

SYNOPSIS

'java' -jar gerrit.war 'ScanTrackingIds' -d <SITE_PATH>

DESCRIPTION

Scans every known change and updates the indexed tracking ids associated with the change, after editing the trackingid configuration in gerrit.config.

This task can take quite some time, but can run in the background concurrently to the server if the database is MySQL or PostgreSQL. If the database is H2, this task must be run by itself.

STATUS

This command will be replaced by reindex.

If secondary indexing is enabled (index.type set to LUCENE or SOLR) use reindex.

OPTIONS

-d
\--site-path

Location of the gerrit.config file, and all other per-site configuration data, supporting libraries and log files.

\--threads

Number of threads to perform the scan work with. Defaults to twice the number of CPUs available.

CONTEXT

This command can only be run on a server which has direct connectivity to the metadata database, and local access to the managed Git repositories.

EXAMPLES

To rescan all known trackingids:

$ java -jar gerrit.war ScanTrackingIds -d site_path --threads 16
