Event

-
Re-index Collection—This scheduled event will re-index
the specified collection at the specified time.
-
Update Collection—You can add or remove files after
a collection has been created. Documents can be added only from under the
directory that was specified during collection creation. If you are removing
documents, only the entries for the files and their metadata are removed from
the collection. The actual files themselves are not removed from the file
system. This scheduled event will update the collection at the specified time.
-
Pattern—Specify a wildcard to select the files to be
indexed.
-
Subdirectories included—If you select this option, documents
within the subdirectories of the selected directory will also be indexed.
This is the default action.
-
Encoding—Specify the character encoding for the documents
to be indexed. The default is ISO-8859-1. The indexing
engine tries to determine the encoding of HTML documents from the embedded
meta tag. If this is not specified, the default encoding is used.
