manage_index(1M) manage_index(1M)
−d Delete an entire cfg clause or clauses. Which cfg clause(s) gets deleted depends on the
other options:
With −c: delete a particular cfg clause.
With −r: delete all cfg clauses for that release.
−e Establish the default cfg clause to be whatever clause is specified in the −c option. If any
other cfg clause in /var/opt/ignite/data/INDEX is already the default, the old
default is turned off. The only possible errors are if the cfg clause specified by −c does not
exist or if there is more than one instance of it.
−l List the names of the cfg clauses as specified by the other options:
With −c: list the desired cfg clause named. This is a quick way to check whether a clause
exists.
With −r: list the names of all cfg clauses for the specified release. Also see −o.
−w List the names of the configuration files in the cfg clause specified by the −c option.
−x Display the description of the cfg clause specified by the −c option.
−y Set the description of the cfg clause specified by the −c option.
−m Move (rename) an existing cfg clause. The old clause name is specified after the −m and
the new name is specified via the −c option. For example:
manage_index -m ’old_name’ -c ’new_name’
−n Create a new cfg clause from an existing clause (copy). The existing clause name is
specified after the −n option and the new clause name is specified via the -c option. For
example:
manage_index -n ’existing_name’ -c ’new_name’
−t Trim a cfg clause or clauses; that is, remove a configuration file from them. This option
requires that a configuration file be specified via the -f option. Which cfg clause(s) gets
trimmed depends on the other options:
With −c: trim a particular cfg clause.
With −r: trim all cfg clauses for that release.
If neither −c nor −r are specified and the configuration file name begins with
/opt/ignite/data/Rel_release or /var/opt/ignite/data/Rel_release,
the part after the Rel_ until the next / is the default release. In this case, all cfg
clauses for this default release are trimmed.
When the −s option is specified, trim a script clause from the INDEX file. That is,
remove a script from it. The −t option deals with scripts when the −s option is also
specified.
-? Display the help screen.
The remaining options are used to modify the preceding options:
−c cfg_clause_name
Only process the cfg clause with the specified name. The name is the label attached to a
cfg clause; e.g., "HP-UX 11.23 default".
−f cfg_filename
Use the specified configuration file name.
−o When specified with −l, the name of the default cfg clause is returned. If there is no
default clause, the return code will be non-zero.
−p Preview. Don’t actually make any changes, just write messages to stdout explaining what
would be done without the −p option.
