Is it possible to disable the indexing during big import?

[clincks]

Hi,

I should like to know if it is possible to disable indexing of documents during an big import process (arround 500GB of data).

Thanks.

HI,
from Alfresco 4.0.d on it is possible to control indexing on a particular content type exploiting the cm:indexControl aspect, provided with basic contentModel.xml:

<!–                  –>
      <!– Indexing control –>
      <!–                  –>
      
      <aspect name="cm:indexControl">
         <title>Index Control</title>
         <properties>
            <property name="cm:isIndexed">
               <title>Is indexed</title>
               <type>d:boolean</type>
               <default>true</default>
            </property>
            <property name="cm:isContentIndexed">
               <title>Is content indexed</title>
               <type>d:boolean</type>
               <default>true</default>
            </property>
         </properties>
      </aspect>‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Hope this helps.
Regards,
Andrea

Hi

If you have the enterprise version of the product you can do this via share admin and not have to start and stop Alfresco.
