Hie,

Yes, Zebra must be re-indexed to implement the changes in its configuration.

Sorting non-latin characters may be impossible in sort-string-utf.chr.
I advice you to try usign the ICU for sorting like for words.

Best regards,

When I search in the Armenian language records using a keyword and then sort the records in Title A-Z order, the search results are not sorted alphabetically.  I have found discussion on this issue and after going through it my understanding is that additional sorting rules can be defined in the file sort-string-utf.chr located in the /etc/koha/zebradb/lang_defs/en directory.  Anyway, when I am adding the Armenian Unicode letters (marked in red and bold) to introduce correct sorting order:
