Rebuild the Database Index

The database index is automatically rebuilt once per seek as part of the Standard Weekly Tasks scheduled task, but can also be rebuilt manually by a system administrator.  

In addition to the automatic weekly rebuild, the database index is rebuilt as part of the start up process. A System Configuration settings controls which parts of the database index are rebuilt during or after startup. This is configured in the ekp.properties file for the index types (Competencies, Job Profiles, Reference Resources, Learning Modules, Users, News, Module Sessions and Transcripts). Index types not rebuilt during startup will be rebuilt in the background after the site has been restarted; while this is taking place there will be data not visible via the interface.

1. Go to Manage Center > System > System Support Functions > Rebuild Index. The Rebuild Index page opens and shows the number of records in the database that are missing from the index.
2. Click Rebuild.
