Can we use confluence while rebuild or reindex is in progress. If so what type of issues may occur when we use confluence while reindexing is in progress

Hi Team,

I am doing reindex on confluence 5.5 version it is taking more time rather than expected. but I am able to access the spaces and pages. Can I continue my work normal or again we have to do reindexing? what types of issues we may face in the above scenario. As I am doing rebuild for first time hence want to know if I can continue work on confluence while reindex is in progress,

Yes, you can continue to use Confluence, although you may find it's quite slow sometimes.
