Processing options 107
-style
Syntax:
-style path
Specifies the path to the style files to use when creating a new collection.
If the
-style option is not specified, Verity Spider uses the default style files in cf_root/lib/
common/style.
Note: You can safely omit the -style option when resubmitting an indexing job, as the style
information will already be part of the collection. If you are using the
-cmdfile option, you can leave it
there.
Processing options
The following sections describe the Verity Spider processing options.
-abspath
Ty pe: File system only
Generates absolute paths for files. Use this option when the document locations are not going to
change, but the collection might be moved around.
When you index a web server's contents through the file system, use the
-prefixmap option with
the
-abspath option to map the absolute file paths to URLs.
See also
-prefixmap.
-detectdupfile
Ty pe: File system only
Enables checksum-based detection of duplicates when indexing file systems.
By default, a document checksum is not computed on indexed files. By using the
-detectdupfile option, a checksum is computed based on the CRC-32 algorithm. The
checksum combined with the document size is used to determine if the document is a duplicate.
-indexers
Syntax:
-indexers num_indexers
Specifies the maximum number of indexing threads to run on a collection.
The default value is 2. Increasing the value for the -indexers option requires additional CPU
and memory resources.
See also
-maxindmem.
-license
Syntax:
-license path_and_filename
Specifies the license file to use.
By default, the ind.lic file is used, from the cf_root/lib/platform/bin directory; where platform
represents the platform directory.
