Note

To speed up the update process, consider using –schedule-search-reindexation or –skip-search-reindexation option:

  • –schedule-search-reindexation — postpone search reindexation process until the message queue consumer is started (on step 11 below).
  • –skip-search-reindexation — skip search reindexation. Later, you can start it manually using the oro:search:reindex and oro:website-search:reindex commands.
