Full content re-index in AEM 6.0

You can trigger the reindex job on any node using the below steps, but in this article we will do it for “PropertyIndex”.

Step 1: Go to crxde lite and go to the “oak:index” node.

Step 2: Search for “PropertyIndex” node under “oak:index”. If you couldn’t find it, then create the node using this link : http://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-0/deploy/upgrade/queries-and-indexing.html

Step 3: On the “PropertyIndex” node, create a property called “reindex” (of type Boolean) and make the value to true and save the changes. This will trigger a background job for reindexing. The property will be changed automatically to false once the trigger is performed.
