Welcome to the #dominoforever Product Ideas Forum! The place where you can submit product ideas and enhancement request. We encourage you to participate by voting on, commenting on, and creating new ideas. All new ideas will be evaluated by HCL Product Management & Engineering teams, and the next steps will be communicated. While not all submitted ideas will be executed upon, community feedback will play a key role in influencing which ideas are and when they will be implemented.

Indeed if you do have a huge ftindex (>3Go), on a critical app (repository for customers), the rebuild of ftindex may take some time. In a web app relying on search, the app is down for half an hour.
But I understand that DBMT is already so complicated with so many options that one more is not so welcome.
Can you please explain why you do not want to update the index for some databases?
