Get Index Operation


  • Use GetIndexOperation to retrieve the index definition from the database.

  • The operation will execute on the node defined by the client configuration.
    However, the index definition returned is taken from the database record,
    which is common to all the database-group nodes.
    i.e., an index state change done only on a local node is not reflected.

  • To get the index state on the local node use GetIndexStatisticsOperation.
