In case if you are planning to fix; the probable fix is not to send gfsh create
command to all the nodes when its partitioned region..

Hi Jason,
I agree with you that the user wanted to index all the data in the region
when using a partitioned region. But when the command is not successful, the
cluster config is not updated.
After the server restart, it will not have indexes as it is not stored in
the cluster configuration.
So there should be some changes, as the index is created on all members but
the command is not successful.
I'm working on a fix. As soon as possible I will create PR on the already
mentioned ticket.
BR,
Mario

Predmet: Re: Creating index failed
Hi Mario,
A lot of the indexing code pre-dates GFSH. The behavior you are seeing is
when an index is created on a partition region. When creating an index on a
partition region, the idea is that the user wanted to index all the data in the
region. So the server will let all other servers know to create an index on
the partition region.
This is slightly different for an index on a replicated region. That is
when the index can be created on a per member basis, which is what I think the
-member flag is for.
GFSH however defaults to sending the create index message to all members
for any index type from what I remember and from what is being described. That
is why you’ll see the race condition with indexes created on partitioned
regions but the end result being that the index that someone wanted to create
is either created or already there.

Hi devs,
While doing some testing, I found the issue which is already reported
there. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-7875
If we run the create index command it will create an index locally and
send a request to create an index on other members of that region.
The problem happened if the remote request comes before the request
from the locator, in that case, a request from the locator failed with the
following message: Index "index1" already exists. Create failed due to
duplicate name.
This can be reproduced by running 6 servers with DEBUG log level(due to
this system will be slower), creating a partitioned region, and then creating
an index.
Why does the server send remote requests to other members as they will
get a request from the locator to create an index?
Also when running the gfsh command to create an index on one member, it
will send create index requests to all other members. In that case, what is the
purpose of this --member flag?

Mario
