If you plan to use search in a cluster, you must configure
a remote search server. If you created any search collections, you
must re-create them on the remote search server. If your search collection
has data, export the collection before you delete it. Then, import
it to the remote server.
Procedure
- Prevent the creation of search collections. To do so, complete
the substeps listed here.
Note: If you
have CF07 or a later fix pack installed, start the portal configuration
engine task suppress-automatic-search-service-creation to
prevent the creation of search collections. You do not need to perform
the substeps listed here. After running the configuration task, continue
with the next main step that deletes all search collections from the
primary node.
- Log in to the WebSphere® Integrated Solutions Console.
Cluster note: If this web content server is
part of a cluster, log on to the Deployment Manager WebSphere Integrated Solutions Console.
