The internal data structures of Sybase Search rely on certain settings remaining unchanged. Therefore, before you start Sybase Search for the first time and before any indexing is performed, you must perform:
Language configuration – you must decide which language Sybase Search uses as the default language for indexing and querying before starting Sybase Search.
If Sybase Search is required to work across multiple languages, no stop-words or word stemming are required.
If Sybase Search is required to work with one language only, that language must be reflected in the various Text Module settings. See “Setting Text Manager parameters”.
If the language is not English, it may be necessary to write a new stemmer. For details on how to write and plug in a new language stemmer into Sybase Search, contact Sybase support.
For information on the language-specific configuration of various modules, see “Optimizing Sybase Search”.
Hub configuration – base this on the level of stress and load the system is expected to cope with. This includes ensuring the various module caches are set to a high enough level, where RAM is available.
For example, if the Query Module is located on the Hub, then its settings need to be reviewed to ensure that it can handle the required number of concurrent queries.
For details on configuring various Hub-specific modules, see “Configuring modules”.
Remote container configuration – base this on the level of stress and load the system is expected to cope with. This includes ensuring that the various Module caches are set to a high enough level, where RAM is available.
For more details on configuring various remote container modules, see “Configuring modules” and “Configuring modules using system parameters”.
