Sybase Search is administered through a J2EE Web application; therefore, you can administer Sybase Search from any machine that runs a Web browser. From the Sybase Search administration pages, you can view the distributed Sybase Search installation and administer it.
Before accessing the administration pages, make sure
that the Sybase Search has been started and is running properly. For
more information, see “Starting and stopping Sybase Search”.
Accessing the Sybase Search administration pages
Open a Web browser.
Enter the following URL in the address bar of the Web browser:
http://hostname:port/omniq
where:
hostname is the name or IP address of the machine hosting the Sybase Search Web application.
port is the port number for the J2EE application server hosting the Sybase Search Web application. The default port number is 8111.
In the Sybase Search login page, enter the administrator password you provided during the Sybase Search installation and click Login. The Sybase Search Home page appears.
If you leave Sybase Search Web administration pages idle
for 30 minutes, you will be logged off and prompted to log back.
To change the login timeout
duration, change the value of the <session-timeout> tag
in the web.xml file available in the install_location\webapp\WEB-INF directory.
The Sybase Search administration pages consist of a home page and the following pages:
