Hi, I observed a version mis match when I run a deleteByQuery and when do a bulk delete by Id. So If I have a doc I want to search and delete it I have two option either use 1. deleteByQuery 2. Search the document and issue a bulk delete these both delete the documents ---- But when I index the document with same Id which was deleted deleteByQuery starts the indexing with version 1 where other (Search the document and issue a bulk delete) starts the indexing with lastVersion+1. Is this expected ? I am working on version 0.90.1 If I am not clear let me know. Thanks, Arjit -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

Note that after 60s by default, whatever the method you used, version number will restart from 1. Are you sure you did not hit this? Is it something you can reproduce with a script? Note that you can control this period using settings.gc\_deletes at index level.
