Manually recreating or updating the Workflow Center index
You can manually re-create or update the Workflow Center index when the server is running.
The index is kept in the file system of the machine that the server is running on. You do not need to back up the profile or the database before running the artifactIndexFullReindex or artifactIndexUpdate commands, and you can run the commands when the server is running.
Recreating the index in a network deployment environment
To re-create the index in a network deployment environment, complete the following steps:
- From the command prompt, change to the deployment manager profile bin subdirectory
where the command is located.

For a Linux or UNIX operating system: cd install_root/profiles/process_center_Dmgr_profile/bin
For a Windows operating system:cd install_root\profiles\process_center_Dmgr_profile\bin
- Enter the following command:
hostName is the host name of the application cluster member on the node and port is the server SOAP port.artifactIndexFullReindex -u userId -p password -host hostName -port port
Updating the index in a network deployment environment
To update the index in a network deployment environment, complete the following steps:
- From the command prompt, change to the deployment manager profile bin subdirectory
where the command is located.

For a Linux or UNIX operating system: cd install_root/profiles/process_center_Dmgr_profile/bin
For a Windows operating system:cd install_root\profiles\process_center_Dmgr_profile\bin
- Enter the following command:
hostName is the host name of the application cluster member on the node and port is the server SOAP port.artifactIndexUpdate -u userId -p password -host hostName -port port
Note: There is one index created for each node. To update the
index, you must issue the command for each node. Run the command from
the deployment manager and point it using the -host and -port parameters
to a cluster member that is running on each node of your installation.
This will update the index for each node; there is no need to run
the command locally on the node.
