IJ04339: ALLOW THE OPTION TO EXCLUDE CERTAIN OBJECT TYPES AND ATTRIBUTES FROM BEING ADDED TO THE TEXT SEARCH INDEX

WebSphere Service Registry and Repository V8.5.6 Fix Pack 2

APAR status

• Closed as new function.

Error description

• If documents are loaded into WSRR with a large number of
  elements, these can cause performance issues when they come to
  be indexed or retrieved for Text Search. It may be that these
  elements (or other object types and attributes) are deemed to
  not necessarily be searchable.

Problem summary

  USERS AFFECTED:
  All users of WebSphere Service Registry and Repository V8.5
  
  ****************************************************************
  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  When performing operations using the text search index a very
  large query can be generated if a large number of objects match
  the criteria of the search. These potentially exceedingly large
  queries can result in significant database performance
  degradation during the processing of the query. This results in
  other database operations being unable to complete whilst the
  database processes the index query.
  
  Typically these large queries are the result of large files such
  as XSDs or WSDLs, which when loaded create a large number of
  logical objects representing the different components of these
  documents.
  
  In addition, during the indexing operations to add or update
  objects into the index, or performing a complete reindex of the
  text based documents, timeouts can occur if it takes a large
  amount of time to process all the objects that are stored within
  WSRR.
  

Problem conclusion

• Contact IBM Support if you believe you require this fix as it
  requires explicit enablement.
  
  This fix is targeted for inclusion in WSRR V8.5.6.2
