Query dataset UIDs for creating bounding boxes

Procedure

  1. Run the create_or_update_bbox_and_tso utility to query the database and find out how many bounding boxes need to be processed for the entire database.

    Run the utility in this format:

    create_or_update_bbox_and_tso -u={USER_ID} -p={PASSWORD} -g={GROUP} -translation_mode=NXBBOXTOBBOX -mode=query -product=%ITEM_ID% -output_dir=%TC_TMP_DIR%

    Note: This can be done only if the product has been made indexable.

  2. Check the output directory for the report log file.

Each report has 50,000 UID entries. Till the query is completed, reports are generated, and the report names are incremented by 1.
