DATABASE MANAGEMENT

Manually updating full-text indexes for single databases
You can use IBM® Lotus® Domino™ Administrator to update indexes manually after new information or documents have been added to databases. You can update a single index in the Database Properties box, or update one or more indexes from the Tools pane.

Note The Database Properties box (Full Text tab) provides useful information about an index, such as the number of unindexed documents currently in the database, the last time the index was updated, and its size.

1. From the IBM® Lotus® Domino™ Administrator, select the server that stores the database.

2. On the Files tab, select the database whose index you want to update.

3. Choose File - Application - Access Control and make sure that you have at least Designer access in the database ACL.

4. Choose File - Application - Properties.

5. Click the Full Text tab.

6. Click Update Index.
