Suncat Reindexed (or HIP Surgery)
Suncat searches began producing weird results Monday afternoon, so we got SirsiDynix on the line and had them take a look. They said, “Corrupted index. Rebuild it.” So, we fired up the Horizon Information Portal (HIP) Mass Indexer and put it to work.
It has–as I write this at 4:40 Monday afternoon–re-indexed about 100,000 records. It has been knocking them off at the rate of 25 per second, and we have a little under 700,000 records in our database for it to take care of. You do the math.
If things aren’t hunky dory Tuesday morning, we’ll attack the problem again.
