Checking Batch Status for HTTP Index

The following procedure shows you how to check the batch status on HTTP index information.

To check batch status for HTTP index

1. In Siebel Tools, configure the indexing mode for index status monitoring:
   1. Set the search specification on the Search Index Batches BC business component to the following:

   Index Mode <> 'FTP'

   This filter specifies to show records where Index Mode is HTTP (not FTP) only, and as a result batch processing operations will be performed on HTTP index status information only.

   2. Compile the changes in the Siebel repository file, and then start the Siebel application.

      For more information, see Configuring the Indexing Mode for Index Status Monitoring.

2. Delete the HTTP index status information in the Siebel application as follows:
   1. Navigate to the Administration - Search screen, and then the Search Index Status view.

      The index batch information appears on screen.

   2. Review the status for each index batch in the Status Indicator column.
   3. Click Purge Table to delete the index status records from the table.

      All the HTTP records are deleted.

3. Query the HTTP index status information in the Siebel application as follows:
   1. Navigate to the Administration - Search screen, and then the Search Index Settings view.
   2. Select a Search Index Setting record (for example, Service Requests) and then click Index.

      This creates a Service Requests index category for the HTTP index mode.

   3. Go to the Administration - Search screen, and then the Search Index Settings view.
   4. Click Query, and then click Go.

      The new batches generated for the indexed Service Requests category appear on screen.

4. Refresh the HTTP index status information in the Siebel application as follows:
   1. Navigate to the Administration - Search screen, and then the Search Index Settings view.
   2. Select a couple more Search Index Setting records and then click Index.

      For example, select SR Attachment and Solution (Call Center) to create the corresponding index categories for the HTTP index mode.

   3. Go to the Administration - Search screen, and then the Search Index Settings view.
   4. Click Refresh.

      The new batches generated for the newly indexed SR Attachment and Solution (Call Center) categories appear on screen.

      When the index batches are queued for indexing, their status changes to Queued and the Status Indicator field shows a yellow progress bar.
