1.3.3.6.6.3. Full text search index

Create full-text search index (Lucene index)

This index is required for the full text search [Full-text search] in PARTdataManager /3Dfindit.

You can recognize the current status of the index by the specific icons:

Example

Example

Full-text search index available
Full-text search index available (Newer version)
Full-text search index available (Older version)
Full-text search index is missing
Full-text search index incompatible (Index is too new)
Full-text search index incompatible (Index is too old)

[Note]Note

In PARTadmin under Index management [Index administration], icons signal the current status of the Lucene index. You can find details on this at Section 1.3.3.6.4, “Meaning of icons and display in the index tree ”.

  • Software update

    Especially at software updates you have to make sure to update the index in order to have fully new functionality.

  • Catalog update

    Catalog updates are advantageous, because they contribute to the improvement of part quantity and / or part quality. Here the case may occur that the index is newer than the software version.

At the top level (catalogs ), the full-text search index can be generated completely new for all catalogs (Create all catalog search indexes [Create all catalog search indexes] ) or only added for non-existent catalog indexes (Create non-existent catalog search indexes [Create not existing catalog search indexes] ).

For all top-level directories (norm, <catalog manufacturer>, own part catalogs), the index for the full-text search can be created for the selected catalog as a whole. The command is not available for sub-levels.

[Note]Note

The full text search index is also required for searching for topological linear dimensions in the full text search input field. When updating the software, please ensure that you update the geo search index and then the full text search index. See Section 1.3.3.6.6.15, “ Update full text search index (and geo search index ) for finding topological values via full text search.
