Create a structure index

Understand the steps of creating a structure index so that the structure is searchable in Teamcenter. To create an index for a specific product configuration, use the bomindex_admin utility with the -function=create and -inputfile options. Determine the product configuration that defines the index. Create an input file with the format specified, configuring the index. The input file line format is as follows: item-query-string | item-revision-ID | base-revision-rule | effectivity-units | effectivity-end-item-query-strings | effectivity-dates (dd-mmm-yyyy hh:mm:ss) | variant-rules | subscribers | closure-rules You can specify up to 110 effectivities. The effectivity numbers must be comma separated. Additionally, you must repeat the effectivity end item query string for each effectivity unit, for example: Copy | 5,10,12 | item_id=HDD-0527,item_id=HDD-0527,item_id=HDD-0527 | You can specify up to 256 variant rules. The variant rules (also known as saved variant rules) are comma separated and follow this format: SVR-name:owning-item-query-string:owning-itemrevision-ID The top line item revision is the default owner. An example of an input file (bomindex_admin_input.txt) is as follows: Copy item_id=HDD-0527 | B | Any Status; Working | 5 |item_id=HDD-0527 | 31-May-2013 00:00:00 | vrule1:item_id=OwnItem1:B,vrule2:,vrule3:item_id=OwnItem3:A An example of running the bomindex_admin utility is as follows: Copy bomindex_admin -u=username -p=password -g=dba -function=create -inputfile=bomindex_admin_input.txt -logfile=bomindex_admin.log Assuming that there are no errors, this creates the required BOMIndexAdminData entries for the specified product configuration. At this point, the configuration required to generate and maintain the indexes exists, but there is no actual index data. Save the input file for later use when the product configuration must be deleted.
