Before you can use the administration tool to configure crawling and
indexing, you must create an Ultra Search instance. An Ultra Search
instance is identified by name and has its own crawling schedules and
index. Only users with the WKADMIN role can create Ultra Search instances.
You can create as many instances as necessary. However, you can create
only one instance per database user.
To create or select an Ultra Search instance, use the Instances
page, which comes up automatically when you log
in.
Use query options to allow query users to limit their searches. Searches
can be limited to document attributes and data groups.
Attributes
Search attributes can be mapped to HTML meta tags, table columns, email
headers.
Some attributes such as Author and Description are pre-defined and
need no configuration. However, you can customize your own attributes.
To set custom document attributes to expose to the query user, use
the Attributes page.
Data Groups
Data source groups are logical entities exposed to the search engine
user. When entering a query, the search engine user is asked to select
one or more data groups to search from. A data group consists of one
or more data sources. To define data groups, use the Queries
page.
