> -----------------------------------------------------

> Key: GEODE-2985
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-2985
> Project: Geode
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: docs
> Reporter: Karen Smoler Miller
> Assignee: Karen Smoler Miller
>
> We should document that making a backup or using a backup to restore a system
> when that system also has/had indexes can be problematic.
> When taking a backup on a system that has an index, if there are region
> operations in progress, the asynchronous nature of propagating the results of
> the operations to an index means that the index content may be inconsistent
> with the region content. If the backup were later used to restore a system,
> the inconsistency will be introduced back into the system.
> The fix for this is to make sure that the system is quiescent with respect to
> region operations when a backup is taken.
> In addition, the restoration procedure should rebuild indexes.
> This issue exists for both regular (OQL) indexes and for Lucene indexes.
