The modeler currently doesn't allow you to specify arbitrary indexes.
This could be added to the wish list, but would mainly be used while
developing a schema (not while maintaining an in-production schema).
My preferred approach is to have upgrade scripts that are checked into
the SCM repository. You can use filenames like schema_001.sql,
schema_002.sql, etc. Makes it easy to sequence them and is highly
reproducible. It also clearly documents your changes. It would be a
very difficult problem for the modeler to be able to automatically
determine the required changes from one schema to another -- and you'd
have to force the DBAs to run the modeler then, too.
I don't know of a good schema migration tool.

Can I use the CayenneModeler to set up indexes? If so,
how?
Can someone share an example, a screen shot or
something?
If not, how do others deal with this? Do I write a
little shell script that does SQL queries to add those
indexes when I re-gen the database?
On a separate note, does anyone know a good schema
migration tool we can use when we, after we deploy, we
end up with changes to our relational and object
models and we need to move data forward (and, in an
emergency perhaps, backward)?
