Starting the Search Server

After you start the Indexer, you need to start the Search Server so it can process Information Portal keyword searches. You can run the Search Server even if the index build is not complete to let users search a partial index. The index will be searchable after the Indexer completes the first 50,000 records.

After you start the Search Server, leave it running so that keyword search requests in Information Portal get processed.

To start the Search Server on Windows

1 On the machine where you installed Horizon Index Services, open Windows Explorer.
2 Go to this directory:

Horizon Index Services installation directory\win.

3 Double-click the startsearchserver.bat file.

To start the Search Server on UNIX or Linux

1 On the machine where you installed Horizon Index Services, open a console window.
2 At the “#” prompt, enter this command:

cd Horizon Index Services installation directory/sun/

3 At the “#” prompt, enter this command:

./startsearchserver
