Disable indexing of a document

Unindexable documents are ignored by TEXTML Server when it performs indexing updates, and entries pointing to them are removed from index lists (deindexed) when the next deindexing is performed.

To disable indexing of a document:
  1. Open the Administration Console and connect to the server and to the docbase.
  2. Unlock the docbase and repository containing the document, if they are locked.
    Note: Locked docbases and repositories are read-only, and documents within them cannot be modified.
  3. Right-click the indexable document's filename and select Indexable (a toggle option). The next time indexing is performed, the document will be ignored. Existing index entries pointing to the document will be removed when the next deindexing update is performed.
  4. To verify that the document is unindexable, check the Documents to deindex parameter in the Properties view, and ensure that the number has been incremented.
    Note: To manually initiate deindexing for a docbase, see Perform a manual index update.
