    Description

      NOTE: This suggestion is for JIRA Server. Using JIRA Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

      Problem Definition

      When carrying out a manual full reindex in JIRA we get this kind of logging in the atlassian-jira.log file:

      2015-11-20 13:19:25,560 IssueIndexer:thread-3 INFO username 760x93x1 6x3ux8 10.155.44.250 /secure/admin/IndexReIndex.jspa [action.admin.index.IndexAdminImpl] Re-indexing is 22% complete. Current index: Issue
      

      However when doing a JIRA upgrade that requires a full reindex, for example this step:

      2015-11-19 19:04:08,176 localhost-startStop-1 INFO [jira.upgrade.util.BuildNumberDao] Setting current build number to 6318
      2015-11-19 19:04:08,192 localhost-startStop-1 INFO [atlassian.jira.upgrade.UpgradeManagerImpl] Performing Upgrade Task: Signalling all data in JIRA should be reindexed. Necessary so stop words are not ignored in exact phrase searches.
      2015-11-19 19:04:08,207 localhost-startStop-1 INFO [atlassian.jira.upgrade.UpgradeManagerImpl] Upgrade Task: 'Signalling all data in JIRA should be reindexed. Necessary so stop words are not ignored in exact phrase searches.' succeeded
      

      Suggested Solution

      We do not get any feedback in the log as to the progress of the indexing process, there should be some reindex progress logging so that when we carry out upgrades on large instances, we can understand the progress and estimate how long it will take to complete.

      Workaround

      We can increase the indexing logging in the log4j.properties like this:

      log4j.logger.com.atlassian.jira.issue.index = DEBUG, indexlog
      log4j.additivity.com.atlassian.jira.issue.index = false
      

      Which then does provide a full log of each item being indexed, but it still doesn't give any information about the progress of the full index, only which individual tickets have been indexed.
