Why made jiratest a re-index after copiing data from jiraprod to jiratest?

Question

Hello together,

yesterday we made a copy from our produtive environment in jira to our test environment in jira. After it was finished we restarted the system, but it took a very long time to start and what we found then in the logs was:
2024-05-16 08:21:27,953+0200 IssueIndexer:thread-12 INFO [c.a.j.index.request.DefaultReindexRequestManager] Re-indexing is 1% complete. Current index: Issue
Jiratest started a re-index before getting up again. What can be the reason for that?

We have version 9.12.5.

Thank you and kind regards,

Lara

@Lara Weber What are you using to copy prod to test?  Are you just making a snapshot and then updating the config files?  Are you using an app?
