Working with Search Indices

You create and update search indices from the Search Indices View. You define new search indices in Siebel Tools. For instructions on defining new search indices, see The Search Index Object.

CAUTION:  The index building operation must be allowed to finish. You must not stop the operation at its midpoint. Once ExecSQL completes the index building operation, results will be returned. Response time for an indexing operation is positively correlated with the size of your index.

The Search Indices View lists all index settings that you previously created, and all search indices that may be administered.

NOTE:  After indexing a database, or external documents, it is advisable to navigate to your temp directory, and delete files for optimal performance.
