RE: Full-Text Indexing

That's pretty much what I thought.  We aren't indexing attachments, thank
goodness.

The product is called Mobile Voice by One Voice Technologies.  Here's a the
webpage.  http://www.onev.com/Solutions/mobilevoice.asp  From what I've
seen and heard, it works pretty slick.  If we were willing to enable POP3
on our Domino server, it would probably work great for us, but we don't
want the headaches of a user setting up a POP3 client to access their mail
from home and accidentally cleaning out their entire mail file on the first
download.

I thought I'd posted to the list on this when we first found out that it
was coming.  The deal is that we have a subsidiary that is a regional
wireless provider and they are ramping up to offer this product to their
subscribers.  Before we do that, they wanted people within our organization
to have as much experience with it as possible and, of course, to get
excited about it and talk it up to subscribers and potential subscribers.

My thought is that once the initial excitement has died down, we will push
the frequency on the indexing down to hourly or less often.  I think I
finally got through to the people that are all excited about it that
there's a significant downside to the road we are on.  My biggest issue is
I don't play political games well, and this has been as political as
technical from the first day I heard about it.

Thanks for validating my concerns and reminding me about DRCC.com.

Have a great day!

Patrick

Patrick,

Full text indexing all mail files and setting them to update immediately
will cause a drain on your system for sure.
 You do know you could potentially double the storage used for each mail
file on the system if you include attachments in the FT index.
The CPUs will be busy all the time and you will see excessive paging in
the domino pool BASE or other private pools
since the indexing jobs will be constantly opening the databases.

There are a number of ini settings which you can use to tune the FT index
jobs
such as ftg_use_sys_memory=1 so it does not use the Domino NIF pool, and
FT_BINARY_FILTER_OFF=1

For a complete list go to the notes.ini reference site drcc.com for the
official and unofficial list of ini settings.

Curious what product you are using..........can you elaborate?
