USER AND SERVER CONFIGURATION
Begin by using the hidden view $MultiDbIndex in the Domain Catalog to see which databases have already been selected to be included in the Index by database managers. If you see databases in the view that should not be in your Domain Index, such as personal mail databases or databases of limited interest, or if important databases are missing from the view, either customize the $MultiDbIndex view's selection formula or use the IBM® Lotus® Domino™ Administrator to include or exclude databases.
Using $MultiDbIndex to view which databases will be indexed 1. From the Domino Administrator, choose File - Application - Open.
2. Select the cataloging server for the domain, and then select Domain Catalog.
3. Hold down CTRL-SHIFT and click Open.
Note If multiple replicas of a database were selected for indexing, Domain Search selects the replica containing the greatest number of documents.
The following is an example of a custom selection formula. In this example, the indexing server will ignore "Include in multi database indexing" settings and index only databases in the smoketestdata directory on servers that contain "hub" in the server name.
1. From the Domino Administrator, select the server that contains the databases you want to include in or exclude from the Domain Index.
2. Click the Files tab.
3. Make sure you have Manager access in the ACL for each database you want to include or exclude.
Note If you want to include databases whose ACLs restrict default access, make sure that the LocalDomainServers or LocalDomainCatalogServers group has at least Reader access to each database you want to include.
6. Select Enable or Disable.
7. Click OK.
8. Assign categories for each database that you included.
