Rebuilding the full text index (upgrade only)

Perform this task only if you've upgraded Content Manager. Rebuild the full text index if it is no longer synchronized with the current database, or after a Content Manager upgrade on a new server for example. It should be done using Invoke-ISHFullTextIndexMaintenance cmdlet available over ISHDeploy module.

Before you begin

  • You need to run ISHDeploy cmdlets as an administrator for the application server
  • The crawler service must be running.
  • To learn how to access and use ISHDeploy, refer to the section on Working with Content Manager deployments.

Procedure

  1. In a Powershell command shell, enter the following command:
     Invoke-ISHFullTextIndexMaintenance -ISHDeployment $deployment ISHDEPLOYMENT -Cleanup

    to remove the existing index, where ISHDEPLOYMENT is the deployment you want to use. (If you have only one deployment, you can omit the -ISHDeployment parameter and its value.)

  2. In a Powershell command shell, enter the following command:
     Invoke-ISHFullTextIndexMaintenance -ISHDeployment $deployment ISHDEPLOYMENT -ReIndex

    to rebuild the full text index, where ISHDEPLOYMENT is the deployment you want to use. (If you have only one deployment, you can omit the -ISHDeployment parameter and its value.)
