Indexing does not start on HP-UX 11.31

I have a fresh install of 4.1.2 on a HP-UX 11v3 box and it automatically paused indexing. I've moved the indexes over to a file system with plenty of free space, and after restarting, it failes to resume indexing.

Thanks,

Matt

There are many reasons why indexing can be paused, but it typically stems from a blocked queue or max disk space is reached. If searching is indeed functional, then you can try the following search to see what queue is blocked:

index=_internal source=*metrics.log* blocked

If your system is unable to search, then you likely have a corrupt index that needs repair. You should inspect your $SPLUNK_HOME/var/log/splunk/splunkd.log and look for FATAL or ERROR messages. Those messages should hint at what is causing the problem.
