Sitecore Commerce 9.0.1 is installed on my machine and I want to install Sitecore Commerce 9.0.2.

Sitecore Commerce doesn't include any prefix/postfix with the index name like Sitecore 9.0 or other version does. (For example: XXX_web_index). Sitecore Commerce directly creates three indexes without any prefix/postfix (For example: CatalogItemsScope, CustomersScope and OrdersScope).

Sitecore Commerce 9.0.1 is already installed on my machine. So, the above-mentioned indexes are already created on my installed SOLR. Since I want to install Sitecore Commerce 9.0.2 on this same machine, I must have to create these indexes with other names.

Configuration file "\Configuration\Commerce\Solr\sitecore-commerce-solr.json" have indexes information which gets created while installing Commerce.

I am pretty sure, if I change the index name here, indexes would be created with that name only. but will Sitecore Commerce point/use the changed indexes?

    There is a "SearchIndexPrefix" parameter that you can use in your ps1 deploy script. Take a look on my ps1 script that I have used for installing Sitecore Commerce 9.0.2 -> github.com/chorpo/SitecoreCommerce9Installation/blob/master/…

  • Please split this question into two. Keep rhis one and ask only index part. Create similar second question where you ask for websites

You should specify "SearchIndexPrefix" parameter in your ps1 deploy script. This parameter is used to set prefix for index cores for indexes used by Commerce.

I am usually specifying it as name of my site instance to easily find it as it will correspend to my site name.

SearchIndexPrefix = "$($SiteInstance)"

You can find details of all parameters in installation guide -> http://commercesdn.sitecore.net/SitecoreXC_9.0/Installation-Guide/Sitecore-XC-9.0_Installation_Guide(On-Prem).pdf

Take a look on my ps1 script that I have used for installing Sitecore Commerce 9.0.2. That could help you also to set remaining parameters -> https://github.com/chorpo/SitecoreCommerce9Installation/blob/master/sxc9u2-My-Deploy-Sitecore-Commerce.ps1
