The following read-only fields are included:
Field |
Description |
Default Index Directory |
The directory path as configured in Studio. This tells you where the index is located in your file system. |
Index Size |
The number of unique entries that are indexed and searchable. |
Indexing Status |
Indicates whether the index is currently being rebuilt. Running indicates that the index is rebuilding. |

The total number of documents that are any of the following:
|
Progress |
Displays the progress of your current index rebuilding job |
For example, suppose Document A was indexed previously, has been modified, and now needs to be re-indexed. Also, Document B has just been created. At this moment, Index Size is 1 and Pending Documents is 2. After A and B have been processed, Index Size will be 2 and Pending Documents will be 0.
You must rebuild the index periodically as part of ongoing maintenance, or else the full-text search function will not return the expected results for your users. During normal re-indexing, your users may continue to search. Until the re-indexing is complete, they will receive the same results they did before you started the rebuild. However, if you rebuild after a disk failure or other loss or corruption, all search requests return zero results during the process is complete. Pending documents still accumulate and are included in the new index.
