Reduce the noise in schema-manager logs for nominal cases #37164
Description
Description
- Many INFO logs are useless logs to the end user, and need to be turned to DEBUG logs, example:
2025-08-08 08:00:15.111] [] INFO
io.camunda.search.schema.SchemaManager - Index template 'tasklist-task-variable-8.3.0_template', has been created / already exists
[2025-08-08 08:00:15.108] [] INFO
io.camunda.search.schema.SchemaManager - Index template 'operate-event-8.3.0_template', has been created / already exists
[2025-08-08 08:00:15.377] [] INFO
io.camunda.search.schema.SchemaManager - Index template 'operate-batch-operation-1.0.0_template', has been created / already exists
- Index template are always created with
create=truewhich causes these logs:
[2025-08-24 18:37:57.948] [] DEBUG
io.camunda.search.schema.elasticsearch.ElasticsearchEngineClient - index template [tasklist-draft-task-variable-8.3.0_template] already exists
[2025-08-24 18:37:57.959] [] DEBUG
io.camunda.search.schema.elasticsearch.ElasticsearchEngineClient - Expected to create index [operate-event-8.3.0_], but already exist. Will continue, likely was created by a different instance.
co.elastic.clients.elasticsearch._types.ElasticsearchException: [es/indices.create] failed: [resource_already_exists_exception] index [operate-event-8.3.0_/T0gpoKM8TmG7ulUawe5Yqg] already exists

Steps to reproduce
- Start C8 with empty schema
- Observe the logs
- Restart C8
- Observe the logs
Current behavior
Less noisy logs about nominal cases
Expected behavior
Less noise in the logs for nominal cases
Environment
SM
Version
- Component Version: 8.8
Solution ideas
- use DEBUG logs when it is not useful for the end user
- check index templates and related indices exist before creating them (as we do for the indices without templates)
