Acquiring cluster lock com.atlassian.jira.start.index.lock 

Each node has to acquire the com.atlassian.jira.start.index.lock cluster lock for the whole duration of the index startup procedure. If the lock is not taken by any other node, Jira will claim it and hold it until the index startup procedure is complete. Otherwise it will wait for the current holder of the lock to finish the startup procedure and then acquire the lock.

In case you kill the node holding the lock, it will take 5 minutes by default for other nodes to consider the lock expired.

INFO [INDEX_START] Current node: [NODE-ID]. Acquired lock com.atlassian.jira.start.index.lock to check the index availability. Other nodes will wait with starting until this one is done.

INFO [INDEX_START] Current node: [NODE-ID]. Released lock com.atlassian.jira.start.index.lock

INFO [INDEX_START] Current node: [NODE-ID]. Waiting for lock com.atlassian.jira.start.index.lock to check index availability. The lock is currently held by node [OTHER-NODE-ID]. Last lock renewal happened at [TIME-OF-RENEWAL]

Step 1 - Local index rebuild

If a local index exists, Jira checks how far behind the DB it is lagging:

• If this is less than 10%, Jira will rebuild the missing index locally
• If this is greater than 10%, Jira will try recovering the index via step 2

Since 9.3 the threshold is configurable with:

-Dcom.atlassian.jira.index.consistency.tolerance.percentage

This step can be skipped with system property

-Dcom.atlassian.jira.startup.rebuild.local.index=false

INFO Current node: [NODE-ID]. Will attempt to rebuild its local index using the replicated index operation table. System property com.atlassian.jira.startup.rebuild.local.index is not defined, and will default to true. You can disable rebuilding the local index by setting this property to "false".	

INFO Current node: [NODE-ID]. Cannot rebuild the local index from the replicated index operation table.

Step 2 - Get index snapshot from shared and catch-up synchronously

If a fresh snapshot can be found in shared-home, Jira loads it and catches up with the most recent changes in the DB.

The maximum accepted age of a snapshot by default is 24 hours (since Jira 9.4.1 it has been increased to 8 days) but can be configured with system property:

-Dcom.atlassian.jira.startup.max.age.of.usable.index.snapshot.in.hours

This step can be skipped with system property:

-Dcom.atlassian.jira.startup.pick.indexsnapshot.from.shared=false

INFO Current node: [NODE-ID]. Will attempt to pick an index snapshot from shared home. System property com.atlassian.jira.startup.pick.indexsnapshot.from.shared is not defined and will default to true. You can disable searching for index snapshot in shared home by setting this property to "false".
INFO Current node: [NODE-ID]. Attempting to fetch an index snapshot from shared home.
INFO Current node: [NODE-ID]. Done recovering indexes from the snapshot found in shared home.

INFO Current node: [NODE-ID]. We couldn't find any snapshots or they weren't fresh enough. Current list of other nodes: [OTHER-NODE-IDS]

Step 3 - Trigger full-reindex synchronously

If previous steps fail, Jira triggers a full foreground reindex.

This step can be skipped with system property

-Dcom.atlassian.jira.startup.allow.full.reindex=false

INFO Current node: [NODE-ID]. Triggering full-reindex. Current list of other nodes: [OTHER-NODE-IDS]
INFO Current node: [NODE-ID]. Triggered full-reindex, requestId: {}. Waiting for reindex to finish...
//PROGRESS...
INFO Current node: [NODE-ID]. Full reindex done. Reindex requests processed: []. List of index snapshots available now: [AVAILABLE-SNAPSHOT-NAMES]. Current list of other nodes: [OTHER-NODE-IDS]

ERROR Error occured performing reindex: [ERROR REASON]
ERROR Unable to start JIRA.

End state: Retrieving index successful

Logs confirming successful index retrieval:

INFO Local index is healthy. Jira can proceed with the start procedure.

Jira will also check if there is a healthy snapshot in shared-home. If one exists, it will log:

INFO Current node: [NODE-ID]. Ensuring that a fresh enough index snapshot exists.
INFO Current node: [NODE-ID]. A fresh snapshot already exists.

If a snapshot is missing or is not fresh, Jira will produce a new one and copy it to shared-home:

INFO Current node: [NODE-ID]. An index snapshot does not exist, or is not fresh. Creating a fresh index snapshot.
INFO Current node: [NODE-ID]. Created index snapshot at [INDEX-SNAPSHOT-FILE-NAME].

End state: Retrieving index failed

Logs when retrieving index failed:

ERROR Failed to prepare local index. Jira is in an unhealthy state.

This Jira instance will be blocked. The warning is presented to the admin explaining the problem:

Users should not be allowed to access this node, since at this point /status endpoint returns MAINTENANCE .

To get a fresh index on this node, you can use the following methods:

• Request the index from another node via the admin panel / copy the search index from another node
• Restore the index from index backup
• Bypass any proxy and go into the node directly to trigger a reindex
• Restart the node

If it continues to fail, please reach out to our Support teams for further assistance.
