Questions about running bulkmarcimport.pl and rebuild_zebra.pl
I just setup a Koha 3.0 system and am using bulkmarcimport.pl to import MARC records in batches of 80-90k records. After, running bulkmarcimport.pl on a batch of records I run rebuild_zebra.pl to index them. Rebuild_zebra.pl goes indexes both the new records and the records that have previously been imported. Is this the way it is supposed to work? Do I need to do something to have it only index the new records? Do I need to run rebuild_zebra.pl after each batch of records or can I bulk import all the batches and then run rebuild_zebra.pl once? Thanks. //SIGNED// PERRY OTIS Systems Librarian Muir S.

Yes, that is how it is intended to work. It will reindex everything. Also, you can import a bunch of batches and then rebuild once as long as you don't need to search for the records in between importing. Thanks Nicole 2010/3/5 Otis, Perry W Civ USAF AETC AUL/LTIA <perry.otis@maxwell.af.mil>:
