dear Nicole, dear Zahid (my remarks also relate to "how to run zebra deamon" from earlier today where Nicole added the same advice): with an ordinary Koha installation everything is set but as per Nicole's advice needs the rebuild-zebra (see the FAQ she points to) on a regular basis to bring the wheels in motion. What rebuild-zebra does is taking a copy of all the new or changed bibliographic or authority records in your Koha database and have them indexed by Zebra for searching. The moment the index is done, you can search. Rebuild-zebra also checks if records were deleted and removes them from the index. HOWEVER: there must be a mistake in the FAQ because the parameter -r is *not* correct for hourly or every minute automatic running (this is what a cronjob does) of rebuild-zebra. It should be -z. And -a is for re-indexing authority records and -b for the biblio records. So: -a -b -z This is what happens with -z: rebuild-zebra *first* checks in a special table in your Koha database (called: zebraqueque) which records were added, changed or deleted and then only copies / notices these and re-indexes. This is what happens with -r: the index is "reset" and *all* your records are copied from the Koha database for building a complete new index: could be thousands and thousands of them. Imagine you start this "-r" from scratch every minute in an automated way: bad news for your Koha performance. Correct me if I am wrong but this what we found out the hard way.

Repke is correct. The documentation should make clear that the -r option is for total rebuilds and not recommended for frequent crontab scheduling. The example.crontab entry does correctly show -b -a -z. -- Joe Atzberger LibLime - Open Source Library Solutions On Mon, May 18, 2009 at 5:42 PM, Repke de Vries <repke@xs4all.nl> wrote:
