Description:
Every new course we add ends up displaying twice in the OPAC (using U-COURSE_RESERVES).

But only the course number gets indexed - not the instructor, or course name, or dept. Things aren't indexing in the GUI either.

An example of an instructor who is being omitted is "Atkins".

Resolution:
Though the filing text of the two Z01's which are appearing in the Course Number ("CNS") Browse index are the same, there's a difference in the z01_display_text and the z01_normalized_text which has caused a second z01 to be created. In the first case, the subfield codes are being included, and in the second, not. What is included in the z01_display_text and the z01_normalized_text is controlled by the xxx30 tab_filing. It seems there must have been a change to this at some point....

Running p_manage_02 corrected this problem.

The non-inclusion of Atkins as an instructor (the INS index) is similar....

It is being filed under "1 Atkins":

02 z01_rec_key \
03 acc_code ..............INS
03 alpha .................L
03 filing_text ...........1 ATKINS
03 filing_sequence .......97627
02 z01_acc_sequence ........000397627
...
02 z01_normalized_text .....$$-1$$-atkins
02 z01_display_text ........$$81$$aAtkins

The "1" is coming from the $$8 subfield.

The usm30 tab11_acc is not specifically *excluding* the $$8, but it is *including* only one specific subfield in each case:

CNO-0 CNO a
CNO-0 COU b
CNO-2 COUIN a
<etc.>

Updating the tab11_acc and re-running p_manage_02 corrected this problem also.
