Rebuilding the events index

If you encounter inconsistent search results, you can rebuild the events index.

  1. Log on to the Control Center master host as a user with serviced CLI privileges.

  2. Stop zeneventserver:

    serviced service stop zeneventserver

  3. Delete the index data:

    export SERVICE_ID=$(serviced service status Zenoss.resmgr | sed -n '2p' | awk {'print $2'})
export SVCROOT=/opt/serviced/var/volumes/$SERVICE_ID
rm -rf $SVCROOT/zeneventserver/index

  4. Start zeneventserver:

    serviced service start zeneventserver

    Depending on the number of events in the database, it may take a significant amount of time for indexing to complete. Until every event is indexed, the number of events shown in the event console may be inconsistent.
