Reindex Required After New Deployment

Note: please note that Liferay has renamed its Liferay Experience Could offerings to Liferay SaaS (formerly LXC) and Liferay PaaS (formerly LXC-SM).

Issue

• When performing a new deployment, a complete reindex process is required for the contents to be displayed again.

Environment

• Liferay PaaS

Resolution

• Verify if the indexes are stored on a persistent volume. This ensures that the index data remains intact even during deployments or system restarts.

  Example of LCP.json configuration for the Search service:

"volumes": {
    "esdata": "/data"
  },
