Enabling Log Indexing

Log indexing on the Security Management Server or Log Server reduces the time it takes to run a query on the logs. Log indexing is enabled by default.

In a standalone deployment, log indexing is disabled by default. Enable log indexing only if the standalone machine CPU has 4 or more cores.

To manually enable Log Indexing:

1. Open SmartConsole.
2. From the Gateways & Servers view, double-click the Security Management Server or Log Server object.

   The General Properties window opens.

3. In the Management tab, select Logging & Status.
4. From the navigation tree, click Logs.
5. Select Enable Log Indexing.
6. Click OK.
7. Click Publish.
8. From Menu, select Install Database.
