See About Indexing for more information.

Class indexing

Class indexing refers to when the CBR Enabled status flag of a class definition (or one of its property definitions) is changed during the current Enterprise Manager session. When you change the CBR Enabled flag, you are also given the option of propagating the changes to all subclasses of the class as well. Once the change to the CBR Enabled flag is complete, an index job is created and is ready to commit in the Index Jobs Manager. You must manually commit the job.

To perform class indexing

  1. Change the value of the CBR Enabled flag for a given class definition. See Enable CBR for more information.
  2. Open the Index Jobs Manager dialog box and commit the index job. See About index jobs manager for more information.

Collection indexing

You can select one or more index collections to reindex from the index collections properties tab.

To perform collection indexing

  1. Right-click on the index area that contains the Verity collections you wish to reindex.
  2. Select Properties.
  3. Select the Index Area Collections tab.
  4. Select the collections you wish to reindex.
  5. Click Index for Content Search to reindex.

Single item indexing

Single item indexing refers to index jobs created on folder, document, custom object, and annotation objects.

To perform single item indexing

  1. Right-click on a supported object type you wish to reindex.
  2. Select All Tasks > Index for Content Search to create an index job responsible for reindexing the selected object.
