Reindexing data to reduce Solr out of memory exception errors

How to enable Doc Values as a solution.

When using Ambari Infra with Ranger Audit, if you are seeing many instances of Solr exiting with Java “Out Of Memory” exceptions, a solution exists to update the Ranger Audit schema to use less heap memory by enabling DocValues. This change requires a re-index of data and is disruptive, but helps tremendously with heap memory consumption. Refer to this HCC article for the instructions on making this change: https://community.hortonworks.com/articles/156933/restore-backup-ranger-audits-to-newly-collection.html
