and select the database.

If you want to create an index for a language other than English, enter the OID
7.
of the collation order you want to use in the Matching Rules field.
You can index the attribute using multiple languages by listing multiple OIDs
separated by commas (but no whitespace). For a list of languages, their
associated OIDs and further information regarding collation orders, see
Appendix D, "Internationalization."
Click Save.
8.
The Indexes dialog box appears displaying the status of the index creation and
informing you when the indexes have been created. You can click on the Status
Logs box to view the status of the indexes created. Once the indexing is
complete, click Close to close the Indexes dialog box.
The new index is immediately active for any new data that you add and any
existing data in your directory. You do not have to restart your server.
