Reindex data in the archive using gRPC API methods

General information

Reindexing is used to restore lost indexes in the archive. For example, if there is no time interval for a certain period of time, though it was available earlier. But the data for this period can exist in the archive, that is, the archive blocks weren't removed due to the use of the archive depth. The reindexing launch allows sequentially restoring the time interval starting from the earliest to the newest recordings.

Reindexing is available only on archive volumes for which recording is enabled.

Request for reindexing

To perform reindexing, use the Reindex method.

Example of a request with the body for reindexing:

POST http://localhost/grpc

{
    "method": "axxonsoft.bl.archive.ArchiveService.Reindex",
    "data":{
        "access_point": "MultimediaStorage.AliceBlue/MultimediaStorage",
        "volume_ids": ["0d8bfa62-6e84-4326-bcc9-56979982ce1f"],
        "full_reindex": {}
    }
}

where:

Cancel reindexing

In some cases, the reindexing process can take a significant amount of time, and if necessary, you can cancel it. To cancel the reindexing process, use the CancelReindex method.

Example of a request with the body to cancel reindexing:

POST http://localhost/grpc

{
    "method": "axxonsoft.bl.archive.ArchiveService.CancelReindex",
    "data":{
        "access_point": "MultimediaStorage.AliceBlue/MultimediaStorage",
        "volume_ids": ["0d8bfa62-6e84-4326-bcc9-56979982ce1f"],
    }
}
