</div><div class="hr" id="update"><a name="update"><!-- --></a><h2 class="topictitle2">Update search index</h2>
<div><p>After creating a search index, you will want to update it when ever you
change the documents being searched. For example, if you add additional content
to some of your files, that content will not be found in using the Webserver
search engine until you update your search index. You can add new or changed
documents or delete documents from the index. If documents are added, they
will be indexed and added to the supplemental index. Use the fields to specify
information about the documents to add to the index. Once you have finished
adding the documents, you may want to merge the supplemental and main indexes.
</p>
<p>To update your search index, do the following: </p>
<ol><li>Click the <strong>Advanced</strong> tab.</li>
<li>Click the <span class="uicontrol">Search Setup</span> subtab.</li>
<li>Expand <strong>Search Engine Setup</strong>. </li>
<li>Select your search index from the <strong>Index</strong> list. </li>
<li>Click <strong>Update search index</strong>. </li>
<li>Choose one of the following:<dl><dt class="dlterm">Build a document list from this directory</dt>
<dd>Select this option to create a document list containing the set of documents
to add, update, or delete from your search index.</dd>
</dl>
<div class="p">There are two additional options that you may select.<dl><dt class="dlterm">Traverse subdirectories in this directory</dt>
<dd>Select to include any documents in subdirectories of the directory you
provided in the field above. </dd>
</dl>
<dl><dt class="dlterm">Document filter</dt>
<dd>Select this option if you want the document list to be made of specific
file types. For example, entering <em>*.htm*</em> will only build a document
list of file types <em>htm</em> and <em>html</em>. </dd>
</dl>
</div>
<dl><dt class="dlterm">Use the document list in this file</dt>
<dd>Select this option if you want to use an existing document list to add,
update, or delete document from your search index. </dd>
</dl>
</li>
<li>Choose an updating processing option:<dl><dt class="dlterm">Add new or changed documents to the index</dt>
<dd>Select this option to use the document list to add or update document
in your search index. </dd>
</dl>
<dl><dt class="dlterm">Delete documents from the index</dt>
<dd>Select this option to use the document list to delete documents from your
search index. </dd>
</dl>
</li>
<li>Choose a document content option:<dl><dt class="dlterm">Documents are HTML documents</dt>
<dd>Select this option if the documents to be searched are HTML.</dd>
</dl>
<dl><dt class="dlterm">Documents are TEXT documents</dt>
<dd>Select this option if the documents to be searched are text documents
(do not contain HTML tags). </dd>
</dl>
</li>
<li>Choose a processing option:<dl><dt class="dlterm">Update index immediately</dt>
<dd>Select this option if you want the search index to be updated as soon
as you complete the form.</dd>
</dl>
<dl><dt class="dlterm">Update index in a background task</dt>
<dd>Select this option if you want the search index to be updated in a background
task. This is the suggested method if there is a large number of documents
to be indexed. </dd>
</dl>
</li>
<li>Choose a document error processing option:<dl><dt class="dlterm">Skip documents in error</dt>
<dd>Select this option if you want the search index to continue updating if
document errors are found. The documents found with an error will not be included
in the search index.</dd>
</dl>
<dl><dt class="dlterm">Stop processing when error occurs</dt>
<dd>Select this option if you want the search index to stop updating if document
errors are found. All documents before the error will be indexed. </dd>
</dl>
</li>
<li>Click <strong>Apply</strong>.</li>
</ol>
<p>To update the search index using the <tt>CFGHTTPSCH *ADDDOC</tt> and <tt>CFGHTTPSCH
*MGRIDX</tt> CL commands, do the following: </p>
<pre class="block">CFGHTTPSCH OPTION(*ADDDOC) IDX(myindex) IDXDIR('/mydir') +
DOCLIST('/mydir/myindex.DOCUMENT_LIST')
CFGHTTPSCH OPTION(*MRGIDX) IDX(myindex) IDXDIR('/mydir')</pre>
<p>You can also update your index through scheduled batch jobs. For example,
to update an index on Friday of every week at 11:30 p.m., do the following:
</p>
<pre class="block">ADDJOBSCDE JOB(UPDATE) CMD( CFGHTTPSCH OPTION(*ADDDOC) IDX('myindex')
DOCLIST('/QIBM/UserData/HTTPSVR/index/myindex.DOCUMENT.LIST'))
JOB(UPDATE)
FRQ(*WEEKLY)
SCDDATE(*NONE)
SCDDAY(*FRI)
SCDTIME('23:30:00')</pre>
<p>To update an index at 11:30 p.m. on the last day of every month, do the
following:. </p>
<pre class="block">ADDJOBSCDE JOB(UPDATE) CMD(CFGHTTPSCH OPTION(*ADDDOC) IDX('myindex')
DOCLIST('/QIBM/UserData/HTTPSVR/index/myindex.DOCUMENT.LIST') )
