== Managing Indices
|
|
|
|
The *Index management* UI enables you to view index settings,
|
|
mappings, and statistics and perform management operations.
|
|
These include refreshing, flushing, clearing the cache, merging segments,
|
|
and closing or deleting indices. The UI provides a convenient way to
|
|
perform bulk operations on multiple indices.

|
Click the name of an index to display the index summary and access
|
|
the index settings, mapping, and statistics. The *Manage* menu in the
|
|
lower right of the index pane enables you to manage
|
|
the selected index.
|
|
|
|
To perform bulk operations, select the checkboxes of the indices you want to
|
|
modify and choose an operation from the *Manage indices* menu
|
|
next to the query bar. To select all
|
|
indices, select the checkbox in the *Name* header.
|
|
|
|
For information about the available management operations,
|
|
