When you restart the indexing utility, you can either reprocess the last file that was processed, or start from scratch with a new file.
The indexing utility generates these files:
<AppName>.dirstat – keeps a list of all the files that have been processed.
<AppName>.dirstat.bak – a copy of <AppName>.dirstat before the last file was processed.
<QueueFile>.pos – records the current position in the queue of files to be processed.
<QueueFile>.pos.bak – a copy of <QueueFile>.pos before the last file was processed.
Reprocessing the most recent file
Replace the contents of <AppName>.dirstat with the contents of <AppName>.dirstat.bak.
Replace the contents of <QueueFile>.pos with the contents of <QueueFile>.pos.bak.
Starting from scratch
Delete these files from the PortalSearch/autoindexer subdirectory of your EP installation:
<AppName>.dirstat
<AppName>.dirstat.bak
<QueueFile>.pos
<QueueFile>.pos.bak
