21.6.4.5 Excluding Services from the WebCenter Spaces Crawler

The Oracle WebCenter Spaces Crawler collects data for searching the following WebCenter services: ■ oracle.webcenter.peopleconnections.profile People Connections 21-58 Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrators Guide for Oracle WebCenter ■ oracle.webcenter.community Spaces ■ oracle.webcenter.page Pages ■ oracle.webcenter.list Lists Use the URL parameter ?excludedServiceIds to disable search for any of these services. Add ?excludedServiceIds after rsscrawl when setting up the Oracle WebCenter source on Oracle SES. Set this parameter equal to the comma-delimited list of service IDs to exclude when crawling WebCenter Spaces. Example 21–10 Disable Crawling of People Connections rsscrawl?excludedServiceIds=oracle.webcenter.peopleconnections.profile Example 21–11 Disable Crawling of Pages rsscrawl?excludedServiceIds=oracle.webcenter.page Example 21–12 Disable Crawling of People Connections and Pages rsscrawl?excludedServiceIds=oracle.webcenter.peopleconnections.profile,oracle.web center.page

21.6.4.6 Additional Oracle SES Configuration

This section describes the required steps in the Oracle SES administration tool. 1. Create a source group that includes the names of the Oracle Content Server, Discussions, Announcements, and WebCenter services sources you created.

a. Go to the Search - Source Groups page, and click Create.

b. Enter the same source group name entered in Section 21.6.1, Setting Up WebCenter for Oracle SES Search.

c. From the Select Source Type dropdown list, select each source type

Database, Oracle Content Server, Oracle WebCenter, and then from the Available Sources listed for each source type, move the source you created for that source type into the Assigned Sources list.

d. Click Finish.

2. Optionally configure the security filter lifespan. This refreshes the authorization policies for users in the system. It is best to have a short lifespan when user policies change frequently. This chapter uses Oracle Internet Directory identity plug-in as the example. For example, on the Global Settings - Query Configuration page, under Secure Search Configuration , enter 0 for Security Filter Lifespan minutes. Valid values for the security filter lifespan are between 0 minutes no cache and 526500 minutes cache for one year. 3. To index everything, you must force a full crawl for each source; that is, you must change the existing incremental crawl schedule for each source to first process ALL documents. This step is very important, in that searching does not work unless the content is first indexed completely.
