How Source Files Are Indexed
Note
This procedure is intended for database administrators.
If you encounter errors, such as the inability to copy files, while distributing to the share
point directory, the database index is probably corrupt. To resolve the database
corruption and eliminate the distribution errors, you should rebuild the index
(wamdb.idx).
Warning
Do not change the contents of Index Location on the Network Index Properties dialog
box. Changing this field changes the share point value. Only change the share point
value in the Wise Repository Manager.
To rebuild a corrupt index
1.
Select Setup menu > Network Index Properties.
The Network Index Properties dialog box appears.
2.
From Method, select the method to use to rebuild the index; do not make any other
changes in the dialog box.
Rebuild using existing index file (not corrupted)
Mark this when the index file is not corrupted but you need to rebuild it because
you changed the Block Size or Hash Table Size.
