All,
I am going to do force merge for one of index (4 primary shard and 0 replica). To reduce the IO impact, I'd like to merge into 4 segments for each shard. So I use following command,
POST /rms_pl_03-viewer-cdr-invite-2020040518/_forcemerge?max_num_segments=4
After merge is done, we can see each shard is merged to 1 segment rather than 4. My Elasticsaech version is 6.5. Could you please let me know why is seems like max_num_segments=4 is not working ? Thanks much in advanced.
