BULK: Records are not keyword indexed

Problem Symptoms

• After Bulk Importing records, cannot find with keyword search.
• When viewing Titles Index containing imported records, Full Title, Author and Date are empty
• Resaving record populates Titles Index fields
• Import log (log.imp*) has message at end:

On Voyager 9.0.0:
WARNING: Keyword indexes are out of sync.

Run the REGEN utility with the following options enabled:
KEYWORD=Y
TURBOBIBTEXT=Y
MOVEDATAFILES=Y
UPDATEVOYINI=Y

On Voyager 9.1.0 and higher:
***********************************************************
WARNING: Keyword indexes have not been updated. Records
can be found with headings and left-anchored
searches.

To index for keyword searching, please run a
keyword regen via the util menu or using
the standard Cert 300 regen instructions.
***********************************************************

Cause

In Voyager 9.0.0 and higher, the BulkImport default is to import records without keyword indexing, unless otherwise specified (see Additional Information).

Resolution

A keyword regen will index the records. Open a Case with Voyager Support to request a regen during Support hours, or run a regen any time using the UTIL menu:

1. On the Voyager server, open the UTIL menu for your xxxdb:
   1. dlib xxxdb
   2. util
2. Type I for Index Maintenance option.
3. Follow the prompts for Regenerate keyword files for xxxdb (option K).

See: UTIL Menu: Running a keyword regen

Or, if the record set is relatively small and can be put into a GDC Record Set easily, a GDC Index Job can keyword index the imported records. See GDC: Purpose of GDC Reindexing job?

Additional Information

If you wish to have keyword indexing done at the time of the import:

• In WebAdmin, check the box for "Generate Keyword Index? Default is no keyword index generated"
• At the command line, add parameter: -KADDKEY
