Remove search collections on Linux

If you plan to use search in a cluster, configure a remote search server; see Configuring Portal Search in a cluster for information. If you created any search collections, you will need to recreate them on the remote search server. If search collection has data, export the collection before deleting it and then import the data on the remote server.

Prerequisites

Install WebSphere Portal
Linux clustered server: Configure WebSphere Portal to use a database
Create the WebSphere Portal profile template on Linux in a clustered environment

Perform the following step to remove the search collection:

1. To prevent search collection creations:

   1. Open the icm.properties file, located in the WP_PROFILE/PortalServer/jcr/lib/com/ibm/icm/ directory, and set the jcr.textsearch.enabled property to false.

   2. Restart the WebSphere_Portal server.

2. To delete all existing search collections from the primary node:

   1. Log on to WebSphere Portal.

   2. Navigate to Administration -> Search Administration -> Manage Search and then click Search Collections.

   3. Click the Delete Collection icon for each search collection and then click OK until they are all deleted.

   4. Restart the WebSphere_Portal server and then navigate back to the Search Collections page to verify that all search collections have been deleted.
