I have been following your documentation for production setup http://www.apiman.io/latest/production-guide.html# .. 

and it worked successfully. i want to clarify something. 

Now i have API Manager data stored in the apiman database , which is great , i can copy it and all that .. but from how i see , when you publish an api , it will be published to the gateway and the gateway stores the data in elastic search !! ? I might be missing something. 

How do i force a refresh from the apiman to gateway ? or do i need to clear elastic search data !  

Sorry if i completely missunderstand something. 

Thanks,

Fadi
