Maintenance options

The following sections describe the Verity Spider maintenance options.
-nooptimize
Prevents Verity Spider from optimizing the collection, thus reducing processing overhead during
indexing. Use this option sparingly, as it leaves the collection in less than optimum shape. The
following are some examples of when you might want to use this option:
•
You want to manually perform custom optimization of the collection, using the mkvdk utility.
By default, the Verity Spider optimization mimics the mkvdk actions of maxmerge and
vdbopt. For more information on the mkvdk utility, see Verity Collection Building Guide and
Chapter 8, "Managing Collections with the mkvdk Utility," on page
•
You are running multiple indexing jobs against a collection, and want to wait until they are all
finished to optimize.
Generally, you should not leave a collection unoptimized for too long, as search times can slow
significantly.
In brief, optimizing a collection means creating a small number of large partitions, which can
greatly reduce search times.
-purge
Deletes document tables and index files in the collection, and cleans up the collection's persistent
store. The collection is then fresh with its original style files, and is not deleted from the file
system.
-repair
Specifies a failure-recovery mode for the collection, where the goal is to determine the causes of
any errors, repair the errors (if possible), and restart a collection.
Although the Verity indexing engine always leaves the collection in a consistent, usable state, and
no data can be lost or corrupted due to machine failures, it is possible for a process or event
external to the Verity engine to corrupt one or more collections.
You can use the
selectively on collections that failed.
