I have single instance test environment. How can I move one index data from productio to test environment for testing purpose.
Hi
if you do not want to mask your production data to be used for the test, you could connect your test server as a Search Head of your indexers and use the production data for your tests (I am an auditor and shudder all by myself thinking of my suggestion!).
Otherwise you could perform a search on your index taking all the data of the period you are interested in and export them as a row data in a text file that you can then import on your test server (maybe masking them); in this way however you have license consumption.
The ideal of security would be to perform the extraction-level masking!
