Sun Java System Portal Server 7 Developer's Guide

Robot Configuration Files

Robot configuration files define the behavior of the search engine robots. These files reside in the directory /var/opt/SUNWportal/searchservers/search1/config/ directory.

robot.conf

Defines most of the operating parameters for the robot.

filter.conf

Contains all of the functions used by the Search Engine robot during the enumeration and generation filtering tasks. Including the same functions for both enumeration and generation ensures that a single rule change affects both tasks.

filterrules.conf

Contains the starting points (also referred to as starting point URLs) and rules used by the filterrules-process function.

classification.conf

Contains rules used to classify RDs generated by the robot

Use the administration console to edit these configuration files.
