What does the new 64-bit index volume folder structure look like?

Description

The 64-bit index volumes for an archive are created and stored in the configured path as <IndexLocation>\<IndexVolumeFolderName>, where IndexVolumeFolderName is the index volume for an archive.

 

• cache – This folder holds the required data temporarily while performing indexing operations.

• live – This folder is a major component of the index and holds the actual indexes for the content in the archive. The *.sqlt files are the 64-bit indexing engine's DBs that it makes use of to manage the indexed data. The viv_idx_* files are the index files and the expansions folder contains the index wildcard dictionary. The tmp and tmp-i folders and indexer.txt, crawler.txt, crawler-fatal-error and indexer-fatal-error files are used internally by the 64-bit indexing engine to manage the indexes.

• State.dat file – maintains a record of the indexing operations that take place in that index. It typically has the acknowledged count of index sequence numbers for the each of the indexing operations Addition, Update and Deletion. This data is used for the verification and determining the health of the index state against the DB state.
