ReIndex ESE Utility

The ReIndex ESE utility (ReIndexESE.exe) is a command-line utility that rebuilds the ESE Index file (inx.edb).

It is only necessary to run this utility after modifying the service’s "appl.ddl" file, or if the DbsConsistencyCheck utility reports errors with Validate Indexes or Orphan Check.

Backups include the inx.edb file, so a reindex is not necessary following backup restoration. Indexes are written atomically with the database changes, so the index file should never be out of sync with the database file.

This utility requires that the DBS-based service be stopped.

Syntax

ReIndexESE B c=ConfigFileName

Parameters

Parameter Definition

B

Optional parameter to run in batch mode; the window will close automatically.

c=ConfigFileName

Complete path and file name of the service configuration file. Default is the ConfigFileName in the current directory. If no ConfigFileName is specified, the utility will use the configuration file in the startup directory.

Note: The c= is required.

Example

ReIndexESE c=C:\CygNet\Services\ELSALM\Els.cfg
