Abstract
Systems and methods are described for improving data availability and/or resiliency of indexers of a data intake and query system. Due to a lag between the time at which data is received and the time at which the data is available for searching, the data intake and query system may receive a query indicating that received (but unavailable for search) data is to be included as part of the query. A cluster master can dynamically track what data is available for searching by different indexers and map the data to filter criteria using a bucket map identifier. When a search head receives a query, it can request a bucket map identifier from the cluster master and send the bucket map identifier to the indexers that will be executing the query. The indexers can use the bucket map identifier to request the individual buckets that they are assigned to search.
