Before you can perform content-based searches you must configure at least one Verity index area. The index area contains the path name where the full text indexing information is stored. Use the Create an Index Area wizard to perform this task.
Before you create an index area, you must create a Verity Collections directory, assign the appropriate security permissions, and type its UNC path in the Verity.cfg file. For complete instructions on creating the Collections directory, see "Configure Content Engine for Content-Based Retrieval," in the IBM FileNet P8 Platform Installation and Upgrade Guide.
