An IDGenerator generates IDs for repository items. There should be only one per repository.

On the asset management and agent servers, by default the /atg/search/service/SearchIdGenerator component points to the /atg/dynamo/service/IdGenerator_production component, which is the ID generator for the production server. This ensures that Search Administration and all search client applications use the same ID generator for the ATG Search repositories.

If you are adding a staging server to your configuration, you may need to configure this component as shown:

/atg/search/service/SearchIdGenerator:
componentPath=/atg/dynamo/service/IdGenerator_production
