Search Queues

Search Queues
A search queue is a special queue that stores a pre-defined query of indexed queues, along with
its own queue form and read group.
When users with proper read access open a search queue, a fast text search (FTS) is activated,
and the results are delivered to the workspace in the Queue panel instead of the Search Results
pane. The results can then be copied, moved, deleted, and edited from the workspace. How fast
the results are returned depends on the speed of your FTS system, the size of your index, and the
number of areas that is being searched, but the usual time frame is between one and 15 seconds.
Some users can create a search queue. To do so, the user must have proper permissions for
creating queues and write access to the parent directory in which the search queue will be
created.
To create a search queue:
1. At an iNEWS Workstation, in the Directory panel, right-click on a folder in which you want
the search queue created.
2. Select New Search Queue.
The New Search Queue dialog box appears.
3. Type the name of the new search queue and click OK. The naming restrictions for search
queues are the same for those of directories and other queues.
Status Box Located at the bottom of the Search Results pane, next to the Clear/Stop
button, this box displays current search state. If there are errors in the search,
or if you stop a search, the appropriate message displays. If the Seek server is
busy when you start your search, you will be notified in this box.
