Procedure: How to Map Index Libraries to Collection Indexes
  1. Navigate to the Magnify configuration folder.
    \ibi\WebFOCUS81\config\magnify
  2. Open the collections.xml file in a text editor, such as Notepad.
  3. Scroll to the end of the collections.xml file and locate the <indexes> section.
  4. Create an index element in the collections file.
    1. In the index element, provide a unique name for the designated index library. Typically, this is the same name as the index library folder and data source name used earlier.
    2. Use the folder of the index library, created by the Format Magnify procedure, as the directory value. This is the same value set in the DATASOURCE Engine Set statement.

      This is the code:

      <indexes>
           <index name="cars" directory="cars"></index>
           <index name="movies" directory="movies"></index>
      </indexes>
  5. Save and close the collections.xml file.
