Remarks

It is important to keep your ISYS index up to date to ensure all your data is searchable.

It may be sufficient to schedule updates to run periodically using ISYS Utilities, however, for systems in which it is critical that the most up to date data is searchable, updates need to happen more frequently.

By using the ISYSIndexer object, you can notify the ISYSEngine that particular documents have been added, removed or changed. These updates are then applied in batch every few minutes (this is configurable). This elevates the need to have ISYS Utilities scanning for the new or changed documents.
