Description

Sometimes the database indexes that govern search results from the database can be corrupted for several reasons, causing inconsistent behavior when searching or loading specifically affected parts of the database. This behavior can be corrected by rebuilding your database indexes so that the data can be reassessed and properly tagged by the index files. This process is considered safe to run in order to correct suspected database indexing errors. It may also be a good practise to run it once every several months in order to make sure that the indexes are in order and up to date. In some cases, reindexing your database may also increase the overall system performance.


Resolution

Please run the RangerMSP Backup Utility prior to Rebuilding the Database Indexes

To run the rebuild indexes, please follow these instructions: (Make sure you're using RangerMSP 5.0 and above)

  2. Stop RangerMSP services if installed and used (RangerMSP WebInterface, RangerMSP Server and RangerMSP RMMServer services).
  3. Stop any third-party services or programs that access RangerMSP database.
  4. Leave the Advantage Service running if you are using the SQL Database.
  5. Backup the <server>\RangerMSP\Db and <server>\RangerMSP\DbSys folders (use a standard zip/archive utility for this (such as Winzip), and/or, also copy the folder to a backup folder.
  6. Download the utility:
    • If you are using version 25 or above - Click here to download a Rebuild Indexes program
    • If you are using version 18 to 24 - Click here to download a Rebuild Indexes program
    • If you are using version 16 or 17 - Click here to download a Rebuild Indexes program
    • If you are using version 5 to 15 - Click here to download a Rebuild Indexes program
