Delete the MMV index of a product using Active Workspace

Deleting a massive model visualization (MMV) index for a product is a significant action that must be taken with careful consideration, as it directly impacts engineering users' ability to view the 3D geometry of the product structure. Delete an MMV index of a product in specific situations, including index inconsistency and performance optimization.

Procedure

1. From Launcher, click Indexer and Search Administration Dashboard. (If this option is unavailable, search for it. You can pin it from the search results for future access.)

2. Click Smart Discovery Index.

3. Perform one of the following:

   Delete the index from Summary:

   • From Summary, click the MMV Indexed status bar.
   • Select a structure that is indexed and click Delete MMV Index.
   • Click Yes to confirm that you want to delete the index.

   Delete the index from Diagnostics:

   • From Diagnostics, select a query and enter the specific search criteria.
   • Click Get Indexing Status.
   • In Status Summary, click MMV Indexed.
   • Select a structure and click Delete MMV Index.
   • Click Yes to confirm that you want to delete the index.

Results

The MMV index for the selected product is removed. Deleting the MMV index of a product does not modify its structure, and the product can be reindexed. Deleting the MMV index of a product might improve the search and filtering performance for the remaining products.
