Hi Erivelto,

I'm unaware of any significant changes to the indexing processes that have 
occurred between 7.6.x and 9.x.  The overall behavior should be the same.  
My immediately "guess" is that something is throwing an error **during the 
indexing process**, or the indexing process is somehow failing to 
complete.  I'd recommend looking closely at your dspace.log file (on the 
backend) when the "./dspace index-discovery -b" command is run.  If errors 
are being logged during that process, it can impact what is able to be 
indexed.
