Introduction
Introduction
The Validate Repository tool has existed as part of erwin Evolve Suite for some time and helps in maintaining the integrity of the erwin Evolve Suite database.
With the erwin Evolve Web Platform also using this database, Validate Repository tool has been extended in this release (2022.0.0) to allow validation of the Global Search Re-indexing feature that exists in the erwin Evolve Web Platform. This validation of the global search re-index helps delete the complete data from the global search and re-index the entire erwin Evolve Suite database from scratch into a global search database.
Running the Validation
