Some saved searches disappeared after upgrade

I've got two splunk indexers that also act as our search heads. Search head pooling is configured on them and has been working fine. This morning I upgraded from 4.3.1 to 4.3.2. After the upgrade some of our saved searches are no longer showing up in the search app, but they are still in the /etc/apps/search/local/savedsearches.conf file.

A similar thing is happening with some of our field extracts, where some are showing up and some are not.

Any ideas?

Does running "splunk btool find-dangling" produce any output?

If so, running "splunk btool fix-dangling" might help.
