DistributeByDate

Set DistributeByDate to True if you want HPE DIH to index data based on document date. Each document in a DREADD and DREADDDATA action is indexed by its #DREDATE field, or another DateType field configured in the Field Processing section. Each replace in a DREREPLACE action is indexed based on its #DREDATE line if it exists, or else sent to all child servers. Other actions are sent to all child servers. If enabled, the HPE DIH is restricted so that you cannot alter the number of child servers.

You must use [DateRangeN] configuration sections to configure the date ranges, and the child servers to use for each date range.

For both HPE DIH stand-alone and unified configuration, DateFormatCSVs must be configured in the [Server] section for date-based indexing to work.

When DistributeByDate is set to True, DIH always distributes documents according to the date. If a child server goes down, it queues the documents for that child server, and indexes them when the server becomes available. Unlike simple non-mirror mode, it does not redistribute the documents to available servers.

NOTE:

You can use this distribution mode only when MirrorMode is set to False. HPE DIH will not start if you attempt to configure this distribution mode when MirrorMode is set to True.
