Going to do it for first time, Any detailed procedure and suggestions would be great.

Hello Krishna,

You need to have atleast one background method server or set wt.queues.executequeues to false.

  1. Download PSI and Solr CDs for 10.1 M050
  2. Ensure that WindchillDS is running.
  3. Run PSI and select Update Existing Installation
  4. Select Install Optional Components > Windchill Index Search
  5. Complete the installation

    Hi Binesh,

    Thanks for your quick response.Will try to install it.

    Besides the above steps, I'd also like to know whether they're any post installation steps which need to perform.

    Yes, you have to run bulk index tool. Review the indexing policy from policy administrator.

    Run windchill wt.index.BulkIndexTool  and start bulk indexing to index all the existing document. This can slow down the server, so pick a time outside business hours

      Hi there is another way through this,

      windchill --javaargs="-Dcom.ptc.net.auth.user=<username> -Dcom.ptc.net.auth.password=<password>" wt.index.BulkIndexTool

      • Doesn’t work in all cases, but can help with some command lines. The “ “s are needed for Windows. Unix may work better with single quotes ‘ ‘ s

      This should start bulk index tool UI wherein you can select whichever option you need.
