You can control the features related to record search either at indexing time or at run-time.
The following statements describe the aspects of record search behavior that you can control:
To control indexing behavior, you can use phrase search, wildcard search or other advanced features of record search. For more information, see sections about phrase search, wildcard search and sections about the advanced search capabilities.
To configure run-time record search behavior, you must create one or more search interfaces. For more information, see Search Interfaces.
Dgidx flags are not needed to enable record search. If a property or dimension was properly enabled for record search, it will automatically be indexed for searching.
Dgraph (MDEX Engine) configuration flags are not needed to enable record searching. If a property or dimension was properly enabled for record searching during indexing, it will automatically be available for record searching when index files are loaded into the MDEX Engine.
Multiple MDEX Engine configuration flags are available to manage different controls for record search, such as spelling support and relevance ranking. See specific feature sections for details.
