This displays the certificate.

The left-side of the screen is a menu under the Solr logo that provides navigation through various screens. The first set of links are for system-level information and configuration and provide access to Logging, Core Admin and Java Properties. At the end of this information is a list of Solr cores configured for this instance of Alfresco.
The center of the screen shows the detail of the Solr core selected, such as statistics, summary report, and so on.
- When the index is updated as reported by the SUMMARY report, you can use
the REPORT option and check the following:
- In the REPORT option, node count should match the number of live nodes in the repository (assuming nothing is changing and the index is updated). The index contains a document for failed nodes, so failures need to be considered separately.
- Any missing transactions; if there are issues, use the FIX option.
http://localhost:8080/solr/admin/cores?action=FIX
Find errors with specific nodes using DOC_TYPE:ErrorNode option.
https://localhost:8446/solr/alfresco/afts?q=DOC_TYPE:ErrorNode
If there are any issues, use the REINDEX option with the relevant node id.http://localhost:8080/solr/admin/cores?action=REINDEX&txid=1&acltxid=2&nodeid=3&aclid=4
