- Run the following command to reindex the database:
db=# REINDEX DATABASE db;
- Restart Authentication Manager services:
rsaadmin@primary:~> cd /opt/rsa/am/server
rsaadmin@primary:/opt/rsa/am/server> ./rsaserv start all
rsaadmin@primary:/opt/rsa/am/server> ./rsaserv start all
Notes
- This issue is fixed in Authentication Manager 8.7 SP1 patch 2 (8.7.1.2).
- The replica servers in the deployment will handle authentication requests while the services are down on the primary.
- Depending on the size of your database, the reindex can take some time.
- Replica servers do need to be reindexed.
- Reindex the primary first, then replicas one at a time.
