Creating Server Repeating Jobs
This topic covers creating server repeating jobs to enable incremental indexing. Incremental indexing enables the index to automatically update, at preconfigured intervals, with create, update and delete operations that have been executed on the data source since the last index update. It provides a more efficient method of updating the index without the overhead of a full Refresh Index operation. Incremental indexing is supported for thin clients. Refresh indexing should be used on thick clients. When importing a batch of data, incremental indexing should be turned off and a one time Index All operation should be performed. Incremental indexing is turned off by deactivating the Update Index action set on the Runtime Events Action Set view. See Siebel System Administration Guide for more information on Server component repeating jobs. NOTE: This task is required only for thin client deployments.
