FS4SP Index not updating new content. Need to run indexeradmin resetindex to make content searchable

For some reason indexing automatically has stopped working in my Fast Environment. I have to manually issue a indexeradmin resetindex command for the index to update. Is there anything I can do to prevent this behavior?

1) Clear-FastSearchContentCollection requires a indexeradmin resetindex for the changes to be applied.

2) Crawling any new content also requires indexeradmin resetindex for any items to become searchable. 

Here is an example of what I see with indexerinfo. I have two indexers and they seem to be out of sync number of documents does not match.

Glad you found a solution. Index status from the indexerinfo looks ok.
If indexer get out of sync again, you can manually sync them using the steps illustrated in the below article.
