IDOL Server 24.1

# IndexerGetStatus

Allows you to display the status of index actions in the IDOL Server index queue.

NOTE: This is an administrative action that can be sent only by users that belong to an authorization role that allows the `Admin` standard role, or which enables the action explicitly. See Authorization Roles Configuration Parameters.

Example:

An `IndexerGetStatus` action is sent to IDOL Server following a DREADD index action. IDOL Server returns the following output:

    <autnresponse>
    <action>INDEXERGETSTATUS</action>
    <response>SUCCESS</response>
    <responsedata>
    <timeformat>YYYY/MM/DD HH:NN:SS</timeformat>
    <state>Running</state>
    <item>
        <id>1</id>
        <origin_ip>127.0.0.1</origin_ip>
        <received_time>2015/03/31 16:14:43</received_time>
        <start_time>2015/03/31 16:14:44</start_time>
        <end_time>2015/03/31 16:16:44</end_time>
        <duration_secs>120</duration_secs>
        <percentage_processed>100</percentage_processed>
        <documents_processed>44710</documents_processed>
        <documents_deleted>0</documents_deleted>
        <status>-1</status>
        <description>Finished</description>
        <docidrange>1-44710</docidrange>
        <index_command>/DREADD?myfile.idx&KILLDUPLICATES=REFERENCE&DREDBNAME=Archive</index_command>
    </item>
    </responsedata>
    </autnresponse>

<id> | The ID number of the Index action that was applied.
<origin_ip> | The IP address of the machine that sent the index action to IDOL Server.
<received_time> | The time that the index action was received by IDOL Server.
<start_time> | The time that IDOL Server started processing the index action.
<end_time> | The time that IDOL Server finished processing the index action.
<duration_secs> | The total amount of time in seconds that IDOL Server spent processing the index action.
<percentage_processed> | The percentage of the index job that has been completed.
<documents_processed> | The number of documents that IDOL Server has processed during the indexing job.
<documents_deleted> | The number of documents deleted during the indexing process.
<status> | The status code of the current status of the index action in IDOL Server’s index queue.
<description> | The description of the `<status>` number.
<docidrange> | The range of docIDs of documents that have been processed during the index job.
<index_command> | The index action that was used for the index job.

The DRECOMPACT index action also returns a `<drecompact_status>` section to show the time that each stage of the compaction takes. This section contains `<stage>` tags, with the following attributes:

name | The name of the compaction stage.
description | The description of the compaction stage.
percentage_complete | The percentage of the compaction stage that is complete.
time_seconds | The time that the compaction stage has taken.
paused | If you pause the `DRECOMPACT` index action, this attribute is set to `True` for the paused stage.

## Content Component Index Status Codes

The Content component returns the following status messages to show whether it is currently processing jobs, or if it is paused:

Running
Paused
Paused (DREFLUSHANDPAUSE)
Paused (out of disk space)
Paused (waiting for flush lock)
Inactive (no jobs)

## IndexerGetStatus Status Codes

Codes in bold are status messages. All other codes indicate there is a problem with the indexing process.

Code | Message | Explanation

–2 | Out of disk space | IDOL Server ran out of disk space before it completed the indexing process.
–3 | File not found | The index file was not found.
–4 | Database not found | The database into which you are trying to index was not found.
–5 | Bad parameter | The indexing action syntax is incorrect.
–6 | Database exists | The database you are trying to create already exists.
–7 | Queued | The indexing action is queued and it is run when all preceding indexing actions are complete.
–8 | Unavailable | IDOL Server is about to shut down or indexing is paused. NOTE: For the DREUNDELETEDOC index action, a status of `-8` might mean that the operation is unavailable because NodeTableSecureDelete is turned on.
–9 | Out of Memory | IDOL Server ran out of memory before the indexing process was completed.
–10 | Interrupted | The indexing action was interrupted.
–11 | XML is not well formed | Indexing failed because the XML is not well formed.
–12 | Retrying interrupted command | IDOL Server is running an index action that was previously interrupted.
–13 | Backup in progress | IDOL Server is performing a backup.
–14 | Max index size reached | The indexing job exceeds the maximum indexing size (your license determines the maximum indexing size).
–15 | Max number of sections reached | The indexing job exceeds the maximum number of sections that you can index. (Your license determines the number of sections you can index).
–16 | Indexing Paused | The indexing process was paused.
–17 | Indexing Resumed | The indexing process was restarted.
–18 | Indexing Cancelled | The indexing process was cancelled.
–19 | Out of file descriptors | IDOL Server ran out of file descriptors.
–20 | LanguageType not found | The language type of the index data was not found.
–21 | SecurityType not found | The security type of the index data was not found.
–22 | Child engines returned differing messages | The child servers returned different messages to the DIH. This code is reported by DIH only.
–23 | Badly formatted index command | The indexing action was rejected by a child server because the syntax is invalid.
–25 | To be sent to DRE | The index action is queued to be sent to the IDOL Server. This code is reported by DIH only.
–26 | `DREADDDATA`: Data received did not include `#DREENDDATA` | The data in the `DREADDDATA` action did not contain a `#DREEDNDDATA` statement indicating the end of the data.
–27 | Command failed more times than the configured retry limit | The indexing action exceeded the maximum number of retries specified by the `MaximumRetries` parameter in the DIH configuration. This code is reported by DIH only.
–28 | The index ID specified is invalid. | The index ID returned by the child server is invalid. This code is reported by DIH only.
–29 | Command was redistributed to sibling engines as this engine was either unavailable or not to accept index jobs. | The indexing action was sent to sibling servers because the child server was either unavailable or not accepting indexing jobs. This code is reported by DIH only.
–30 | Database name too long | The name of the database in which you are indexing documents is too long. The length is defined internally as 63 characters.
–31 | Command ignored due to id match | The `DREINITIAL` action was ignored because it did not match the ID specified in the `InitialID` parameter.
–33 |  | The database cannot be created because the maximum number of databases was exceeded. The maximum is defined internally as 32,767.
–34 | Pending commit | The indexing job is complete and the documents become available for searching after the next delayed sync cycle, which is specified in the DelayedSync parameter.
–35 | Initializing | The indexing job is being started. This code is reported by DIH only.

–38 | Processing in remote engine. | The target server of a DREEXPORTREMOTE operation is processing the exported documents.

If the `IndexerGetStatus` action returns zero or a positive number, this number indicates the percentage of the indexing job that has been completed.
