Tablestore:What do I do if the [table ttl] must be bigger than or equal search index ttl error message is returned when I modify the TTL of a data table?

Problem description

The following error occurs when you modify the TTL of a data table:

[table ttl] must be bigger than or equal search index ttl

Cause

The data table has a search index. Tablestore requires the table TTL to be greater than or equal to the search index TTL. A shorter table TTL causes the index to reference data that has already expired.

Solution

Choose a resolution based on your current TTL configuration:

• Table TTL < search index TTL — Reduce the search index TTL first, then modify the table TTL. For details, see Specify the TTL of a search index. For information about table TTL settings, see Data versions and TTL.

• Table TTL ≥ search index TTL — Modify the table TTL directly. For more information, see Data versions and TTL.
