This happened to me also but i found that the reboot without stopping the services does not always cause the indexes to be damaged. In most cases the indexes dont actually get corrupt what usually happens is that the checksum.dat file in the index directory goes out of sync.
The fix for that is to stop the services again and then rename the checksum.dat to something else like Checksum.old.
When you restart the services a new checksum file is created.
If this works then the indexes are ok
If this fails to correct the issue then and only then do you need to either rebuild or you can restore from tape (or other backup media) and then do an update
This should bring the index online
