You create a record store merger for your application in the custom script file (named, for example, initialize_rs_feeds.[bat|sh]) that you wrote to create record stores. This script file must be placed in /Endeca/apps/Discover/control/initialize_services.bat. For information about how to create this custom script file, see Creating record stores .

To create the record store merger, add this code to the custom script file:

REM Create the record store merger after creating the Dimension Value Id
REM Manager, Record Stores, and IFCR Site 
echo Creating record store merger
  %RECORD_STORE_MERGER_NAME% call %CAS_ROOT%\bin\cas-cmd.bat createCrawls -h
  %CAS_HOST% -p %CAS_PORT% -f %~dp0..\config\cas\last-mile-crawl.xml 
    if not %ERRORLEVEL%==0 ( 
      echo Failure to create crawl. exit /B 1 
  )  

where the variable RECORD_STORE_MERGER_NAME must be assigned a value in this same script file; for example:

set RECORD_STORE_MERGER_NAME=Discover-record-store-merger

A single Guided Search application can use only one record store merger and only one Dimension Value ID manager.
