Information Required by Setup

When installing Microsoft Index Server, the Setup program will ask you in which directories to put:

•	Sample scripts.

This directory will be referenced by the virtual root /Scripts

•	Sample HyperText Markup Language (HTML) pages.

This directory will be referenced by the virtual root /

•	Default index.

A directory named Catalog.wci will be created at this location. Index size can be up to 30% of the size of the original input text, so pick a location with enough free space.

Note By default, Setup puts sample scripts into /Scripts/Samples/Search and sample HTML pages into /Samples/Search.

Additions to Your System

In addition to copying sample files and the default index to your computer, Setup also does the following:

•	Copies dynamic link library files (DLLs) to the \Winroot\System32 directory.

•	Add keys to the registry.

•	Installs performance counters.

•	Creates the Srchadm folder for the administration page and administration sample pages.

•	Creates, by default, the Help folder under the Srchadm folder for the Index Server documentation.
