Configuring an iBase database

The Search index service must have the connection details of the database that need indexing. In addition, the frequency to run the indexing job needs to be set.

Procedure

To set up the Search index service for an iBase database:

  1. Click Add to display the Configure Database dialog.

  2. Enter the name of the server that hosts the iBase database.

  3. Enter the SQL Server name of the iBase database.

  4. In run as, enter the Windows™ account to be used to run the index service.

  5. Select the frequency at which the index jobs run and then set up the schedule.

  6. To start the index service on the date and time that is specified for the first job, turn on the Enabled checkbox.

    Note: Unlike most other SQL Server job properties, the enabled flag enables both the job and the schedule.

  7. Click OK to create the index service. If the Enabled checkbox is turned on, a job (i2_Search_Indexing_<server>_<InstanceName>_<DatabaseName>) is run at the next scheduled time and starts the index service.

  8. Advise the iBase database administrator of the date and time of the first scheduled job as this is not visible in iBase Designer.

    Important: If Search 360 is turned off in iBase Designer, jobs run, but exit without indexing.
