Starting and stopping the DRE

The Dynamic Reasoning Engine (DRE) starts automatically during the initial installation and configuration of Enterprise Portal.

Starting the DRE

Change to the $SYBASE/PortalSearch/bin directory and enter:
```
StartQuery.sh
```

Stopping the DRE

To stop the DRE, from $SYBASE/PortalSearch/bin, enter:
```
StopQuery.sh
```

Once the DRE is running, you can use the DRE administration tool (Windows only) or the automatic indexing utility to index your database files and prepare them for searches. For information on the automatic indexing utility, see Appendix C, “Setting up Automatic Indexing and Search Functionality,” in the Enterprise Portal Developer’s Guide.
