Dear Team,

I have made certain modifications in the keywords metadata and would like to reindex them. I am aware that a full reindex can be done using the command:

[dspace]/bin/dspace index-discovery -b

Could you please confirm if there is a command available to perform reindexing at the Community or Collection level by providing the respective handle, instead of reindexing the entire repository?

Regards

Hi Vikas,

Yes, you'd want to use the "-i" flag for that command, e.g. "./dspace index-discovery -i [object-handle]", where "[object-handle]" is the handle of the Community or Collection you wish to reindex.  See the documentation for more details: https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSDOC9x/Discovery#Discovery-DiscoverySolrIndexMaintenance
