Remove security_policies duplicated indexes
After #385701 (closed), we can identify duplicated indexes. At the moment, there are many duplicate indexes that can be removed from our database, as they are not needed anymore.
The list of duplicated indexes can be found in the duplicate_indexes.yml
file.
We have identified the following duplicated indexes owned by groupsecurity policies:
scan_result_policies table
- index_scan_result_policies_on_position_in_configuration:
index_scan_result_policies_on_policy_configuration_id
NOTE: Consider removing indexes showed on the right. Indexes at the left are covering for the duplicated one.
Feel free to split this issue into several under &11436 (closed) if that aligns more with how your group works.
See the references below to remove indexes. If the table is larger or with a lot of traffic, please consider dropping the index asynchronously.
