CONFIGURING
On the Design tab of the Database Properties box, you can assign one or more categories to each database to be included in the Domain Index. These categories appear on the search form to provide a user with a way to narrow a search. Categories are also displayed in views of the database catalog and Domain Catalog.
About this task
You must have Manager access to a database to create the categories.
Note: Searching within categories is supported only for HCL Domino® databases. Whenever a user specifies a category on the search form, search results will not include any documents from file systems.
Use the Categories view in the Domain Catalog to see whether database managers have assigned databases to appropriate categories. To edit or add categories, use Database Properties for each database.
