DRECOMPACT

Allows you to reduce the space left when documents are deleted from the data index. The DRECOMPACT index action fills the space created through the document deletion with new documents. This process is similar to the de-fragmentation process.

After the compaction is complete, the index action recalculates the SortField information.

Note: HPE recommends that you back up IDOL Server before compacting it.

By default, the DRECOMPACT index action automatically copies the data index to the internalbackup directory in the IDOL Server data directory. To change this directory, set the PreCompactionBackup configuration parameter, or use the Backup index action parameter.

Example

http://12.3.4.56:20001/DRECOMPACT

This index action uses port 20001 to compact IDOL Server, which is located on a machine with the IP address 12.3.4.56.
