Manage search services
To create or edit Portal search services, go to...
Administration | Search Administration | Manage Search | Search Services
To create a new portal search service, click New Search Service...
To modify an existing search service, click the Edit icon for that search service. Manage Search lists the parameter key and value pairs for the search service.
Set or edit the parameter values depending on the requirements and configuration.
The values set for parameters of a portal search service apply to that search service and all its collections. They do not affect other search services of the portal or their search collections.
Some configuration parameters are available for both the search services and for the Search and Browse portlet. If you configure a copy of the Search and Browse portlet for search on collections under a particular search service, then set the same value for these shared parameters.
If you modify a search service parameter that affects search collections, this modification will apply only to newly created search collections created in the search service. Existing search collections will not be affected by the updated parameter value.
To create a search service for remote Portal Search, refer to Configure a remote search service.
