When you see a following error when you are working on Search Settings (adding rules etc...),
"The search service is currently offline. Visit the Services on Server page in SharePoint Central Administration to verify whether the service is enabled. This might also be because an indexer move is in progress."
Most of the times, your search service is online unlike what exception states. But if you run the following command, the magic happens and you no longer see the above error.
psconfig -cmd upgrade -inplace b2b -wait
The output looks like this (You will have no idea what was fixed under the hood :)):
