Environment
- Existing Liferay DXP 7.2 installations after moving to Fix Pack 8+/Service Pack 3+ (FP8+/SP3+) patch level
- Elasticsearch 6.x/7.x
Symptom
After installing DXP 7.2 FP8+/SP3+, the following new indexes appear in Elasticsearch:
liferay-<companyId>-search-tuning-rankings
liferay-<companyId>-search-tuning-synonyms
liferay-<companyId>-workflow-metrics-instances
liferay-<companyId>-workflow-metrics-nodes
liferay-<companyId>-workflow-metrics-processes
liferay-<companyId>-workflow-metrics-sla-process-results
liferay-<companyId>-workflow-metrics-sla-task-results
liferay-<companyId>-workflow-metrics-tokens
where the companyId (like 20101) belongs to a given Company record in your the database. It is displayed as "Instance ID" in the UI and represents a Virtual Instance.
Resolution
The appearance of these indexes is intentional: they replace some previous indexes in order to support multi-tenant DXP-Elasticsearch deployments. Please refer to this guide for further details.
