Administrator Guide: Adding a New Schedule
There are two ways to provide the collection with URLs to begin crawling
from. One of the ways is to add them to the Starting URLs screen. These URLs
are automatically added to the Todo list when the Todo list is empty and
crawling has been initiated. This feature is useful if you always need to start
crawling from the same location.
Schedules can be created by clicking on the “Schedule Updates” hyperlink on the
Status screen. Once on the new screen, click “New Schedule” at the very top.
Start & Stop Times:
The Start time is when the collection will be crawled. The Stop time is when
the collection will be stopped, if it’s still being crawled when that time is
reached.
Task:
This tells the spider what you would like it to do. It can either crawl from
the Todo list or crawl the previously collection documents updating them.
Frequency:
This is how often the spider will crawl the collection. Collections can be
crawled Hourly, Daily, Weekly, or Monthly.
Empty Tables:
This instructs the spider to empty the specified table(s) before starting the
collection.
For example, if Errors is checked, the spider will empty the errors table before
crawling. This would be particularly useful when crawling your own Web site or
Intranet and want to make sure that it visits every page regardless of whether
or not a page was unavailable during the last crawl.
Full-Text Index:
This instructs the spider to update the Full-Text Index at the scheduled stop
time.
