Pause a Search Service

As an administrator, you can pause a search service that is running.

Note: After a search service has been paused, you must restart the service to return it to running mode. For the DRE, see Restarting the DRE.

To pause a search service:

  1. In the Search Configuration Settings Resource tree, select the search service you want to pause.
  2. In the Editor pane, verify that the selected service shows Current Status: Running.
  3. To pause the service, click the orange Pause button.
  4. In the Editor pane, verify that the selected service shows Current Status: Paused.

The search service is now paused. To return the search service to running mode, you will have to restart it. If you paused the DRE and want to restart it, see Restart the DRE.
