Doubt about reconfigure and reindex storage area in RM server administration
Hi all,
In RM server administration I have the possibilities to reconfigure and reindex storage areas, but what is it for? I mean, in what situation must I use these features? Another questions: Are these features equal any repotools command? What are the impacts of use it? What should be the precautions to execute the command? Thanks a lot. |
Accepted answer
Hi Luiz,
The indices are heavily used by the Jena technology that underpins our products. This is especially true of RM. The repotools command equivalent would be : repotools-rm.bat reindex -all Ben Silverman did a fantastic job of explaining most of the rm/admin options here: https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Deployment/CLMServerMonitoringGeneral For more background on indices within CLM, see: https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Deployment/DeploymentJazzIndicesTechnology https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Deployment/DeploymentJazzIndicesStorage Just note that without indices your product would run very slowly. Typically you do this offline with repotools. However, it is possible to use the RM GUI for these operations, but it isn't recommended you do this during peak usage!

One other answer
As an addendum to Paul's answer, I would add that neither of these commands should be used outside of the supervision of the Rational Support team. While these commands will not corrupt any RM data, like Paul mentioned they will significantly slow the application since these commands will demand a high amount of usage for system resources (CPU, RAM, etc.).
