Supporting Concepts

The supporting concepts that are used in this document are defined in the following sections.

Noetix Search Instances

A Noetix Search instance correlates to an indexed NoetixViews schema, Noetix Analytics repository, or RapidDecision metadata repository. You can generate, regenerate, and delete Noetix Search instances, and generate instance documentation for Noetix Analytics modules, NoetixViews roles, or RapidDecision modules. Each time you generate a NoetixViews schema, Noetix Analytics repository, or RapidDecision metadata repository, a new Noetix Search instance for the schema or repository is created. Also, all the documents created and indexed for the new Noetix Search instance will share a unique instance ID so that they can be identified with the Noetix Search instance that is created.

Noetix Search Server

Noetix Search Server is an enterprise search server and web search engine used by Noetix Search to index the information that you are looking for.

Documents

A document is an XML block or fragment consisting of field values that define the type of object described in the document. By default, these fields are defined in the Noetix Search Server schema file located in the <installation_folder>\Noetix\Noetix Search\Solr\solr\conf folder. In other words, a field is an attribute and a document contains fields of information. When you search for content in Noetix Search, these documents are searched in the Noetix Search Server index to find the information to be displayed as search results.

Noetix.Search.Builder.properties File

By default, the Noetix.Search.Builder.properties file is located in the <installation_folder>\Noetix\Noetix Search\builder folder. This file defines the default values for the Noetix Search Builder settings. You can customize the file according to your requirements. Open the file to customize the default settings or view the description of individual settings.

Log Files

A log file is created each time you successfully generate, regenerate, or delete a Noetix Search instance, generate or regenerate documentation of a Noetix Search instance, or exit Noetix Search Builder from any page after the "Noetix Search Server Connection" page. These files store information about a build event and are created as .log and .xml files.

The .log file can be viewed using a text editor such as Notepad++. The entries in the .log file are organized chronologically. For example, the entries that were logged first, appear first in the file. The .xml file is created only when you have successfully finished generating or regenerating a Noetix Search instance. This .xml file can be viewed through a web browser.

You can distinguish the log files based on the time specified in the log file name. The log file name indicates the date and time when Noetix Search Builder was run and comprises two parts as shown in the following example:

     

  • Part 1: The date (in the yyyy-mm-dd format) when Noetix Search Builder was run. In the above example, it was run on May 19, 2008.

  • Part 2: The time (in the hh:mm:ss.sss format) when Noetix Search Builder was run. In the above example, it was run at 20:39:04.573.

Log files are stored in the <installation_folder>\Noetix\Noetix Search\builder\logs folder on the computer where Noetix Search Builder is installed. To troubleshoot the log files, e-mail the log files to insightsoftwareSupport.
