Lewatle, 'dspace index-init' will completely wipe out (remove) the current index and recreate it from scratch. This is best used when you want to rebuild the index entirely (but it does require that Tomcat is stopped, otherwise you might see odd errors occur)
'dspace index-update' leaves the current index intact, but just attempts to update it. This can be run while Tomcat is still running, as the index is not removed completely. I hope that helps! - Tim On Wednesday, August 24, 2011 2:04:41 AM, Lewatle Phaladi wrote: > Hi All > > I need advice from you, my problem is that I want to re-index dspace, > what is the best way between dspace index-init and dspace index-update, > *my* dspace search engine doesn’t find all items loaded in the > repository and since I have never used re-indexing since last two dspace > upgrades. > > Regards, > > Lewatle > > This communication is intended for the addressee only.
