Indexer
This configuration tab contains the indexing engine settings. Each option has an associated information popup (the “i” symbol next to the option name) which describes what the setting does and how it works. To view advanced options, click the wrench icon at Settings on the right.
| Option | Description | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| General settings | ||
| Indexer Threads | The number of background threads the Indexer uses for its processing. Default is 0 (auto). | Netwrix recommends leaving this setting on its default value. See the Knowledge Base article Classifier and Write Thread Tuning for details on thread tuning. |
| Near Duplicate Detection Enabled | With this option enabled, the Indexer attempts a fuzzy match to locate near duplicates within the index (as a background action). You can then review these via the Near Duplicate Detection report. | By default, duplicate detection is based purely on an exact match (matching checksum). |
| Advanced settings | ||
| Indexer Delay | The sleep time (in milliseconds) between intensive operations (for example, extracting terms). Default is 1 millisecond. | |
| Indexer Polling | The sleep time between Indexer batches. | The product uses this only when the indexing queue is empty. |
DocumentID<N> Mapping | Maps fields into the search index ID references. Allows for custom queries based on external IDs against the SOAP search API calls. | These are ID3 — ID8 |
