114 Chapter 9: Indexing Collections with Verity Spider
Core options
The following sections describe the Verity Spider core options.
-cmdfile
Syntax :
-cmdfile path_and_filename
Specifies that Verity Spider reads command-line syntax from a file, in addition to the options
passed in the command-line. This option includes the pathname to the file that contains the
command-line syntax. The
-cmdfile
option circumvents command-line length limits.
The syntax for the command-file is:
option optional_parameters
For better readability, put each option and any parameters on a single line. Verity Spider can
properly parse the lines.
Note: Macromedia strongly recommends that you take advantage of the abstraction offered by this
option. This can greatly reduce user error in erroneously including or omitting options in subsequent
indexing jobs.
-collection
Specifies the full path to the collection to create or update.
Note: You receive an error if you specify a filename with an extension of CLM. Meta collections are
not supported.
-help
Displays Verity Spider syntax options.
-jobpath
Syntax :
-jobpath path
Specifies the location of the Verity Spider databases and the indexing job-related files and
directories.
The following are the job-related directories and their contents:
log All Verity Spider log files. For descriptions of the log files, see
-loglevel
.
bif Bulk insert files.
temp
Web pages cached for indexing. You can also specify the temp directory using the
-temp
option.
These directories are created for you under the last directory specified in path.
Path values must be unique for all indexing jobs. If you do not use the
-jobpath
option, Verity
Spider creates a /spider/job directory within the collection. For multiple-collection tasks, the first
collection specified is used.
Note: You cannot use multiple job paths for multiple simultaneous indexing tasks for the same
collection. Only one indexing task at a time can run for a given collection.
