Managing Search
This section describes how to implement search for documents
that reside in the Knowledge Directory, in communities, or in the
collection of crawled links.
- Customizing Search Service Behavior
- About Grid SearchGrid search consists of shared files (for example, C:\cluster) and search nodes. When you start up the Search Service, it looks at the cluster.nodes file in the shared files location to determine the host, port, and partition of each node in the cluster. It monitors and communicates the availability of the search nodes and distributes queries appropriately.
- About the Search Update JobThe Search Update job performs the following actions on the search index: updates the index, releases expired locks on users and objects, and repairs the search index according to the Search Service Manager repair settings.
- About Providing Search Access to External Repositories with Federated SearchesFederated searches allow you to establish search relationships with other sources (including other portals, web sites, or custom databases). Federated searches provide end users a single interface and unified result set for searches over multiple Oracle WebCenter Interaction portals, as well as parallel querying of external internet and intranet-based search engines.
